Hi,
I just wanted to say thanks and show my appreciation for your posts on this
list and the related responses. I too was having post-install hangs, and
following your post above I disabled both the Logitech service, quickcam.exe
and the LVComSvr process in task manager. No problems now. I knew Logitech
had problems with its software, but thought this was restricted to its
keyboard/mouse products, wouldn't have thought it would still happen with a
webcam. Anyway, the end result is a full cygwin install as I wanted with no
hangs. Thanks again.
Kind Regards and Best Wishes,
Hussein Patwa.
