This is getting unreal. At one point I managed to get it to work, but everything has refused to cooperate regardless of how many times I uninstall and reinstall the Logitech software.
Currently:
the Logitech Unifying Receiver does not recognize itself when I load up it's utility (Windows, however, sees it in Devices).
SetPoint 6.50 does not give me any device settings to edit.
When all this is installed, or at least in a failed state like this, I also cannot scroll in Chrome - using either the touchpad or my G700's scroll wheel. Yet, I can continue to scroll just fine in every other application ("Metro" or Desktop, it all works).
1) I need scrolling in Chrome. This is beyond ridiculous.
2) Without SetPoint working correctly, I cannot get all the gestures, which is very annoying.
At one point I actually had all that working, and then it stopped, and then I got some seriously insane issues where I was getting repeating sounds and a non-stop keypressing of 8 - whenever a text selection box was up, it was filling up with 88888888888... and this I imagine was causing the repeating audio issues, not to mention preventing most interaction with Windows since things would load and get selected when I got into menus. That was a frustrating exercise last night, got everything uninstalled and now I'm trying to get things back.
Even before that moment, when everything was installed and working correctly, the settings would fail after a reboot or something. I have a solution in mind to get everything to stick permanently (has to due with the hibernation file and, most likely fast-boot -- had an issue with my Creative X-Fi settings not sticking).
If I can get this working, it will appear that my upgrade from my Windows 7 install to Windows 8 (direct upgrade with all apps/settings) will have been a success. I had a few other issues, now resolved, though I imagine a few more will pop up when I do something or use some app that I rarely ever touch, but that's expected.
