    ok guys......something quite strange has happened, and i got no clue what is going on......

    so, i just got and installed an external 2.5" drive.....no biggy, everything works just fine.....but........

    after using it --- my Logitech mouse and the Asus synaptic touchpad
    seem to be getting all messed up......

    here is what happens.....every time.....

    logitech settings (speed, button presets, etc....) all working 100% good...until i open "My Computer" either through win explorer, direct call, whatever...once "my computer" opens, all the mouse functions (speed, etc..) for some reason revert to the asus touchpad......and when i close the my computer window, all returns to normal logitech settings....

    i have absolutely no clue why this would happen......anyone got anything?

    EDIT: and i also just noticed -- it happens whenever the "my computer" window is visible, if i minimize, all logitech settings return....
