    Logitech G15 Not Working Before Windows

    Hi,

    Basically, my G15 (v2) isn't working when I want to select which OS to boot from. It only works when windows loads, but the strange thing is, it works before the options appear, for example to enter the BIOS and change settings.

    Just wondering if anybody could help or explain why it happens, cos it's bloody annoying having to change the default settings every time I wanna change OS.

    Thanks,

    Peter.

    i've never actually found a work around for this.. but the way i solved it was just by plugging a PS2 keyboard in and leaving it tucked behind my desk.

    Make sure USB legacy support is enabled in your BIOS otherwise it won't work for anything past the bios before windows.
