This should be easy to fix, i need a little help from a guru. I have a
logitech webcam that worked fine. Then i made the mistake of connecting my
Nikon camera to my laptop, which then futzed around and eventually installed
itself as a virtual disk drive. Now when i try to reconnect the webcam it is
an UNKNOWN DEVICE. I've uninstalled every Nikon app I can find, but there is
some driver
from nikon or registry entry which must be stopping the Logitech from finding
the right driver. How can i remove any and all stuff which Nikon added? Or
is there another way to fix this? Ive uninstalled and reinstalled the
Logitech software a dozen times. Thanks.
