Hi, a new visitor here.

I have way back when bought my G15v1 (blue backlighting and 18 macro keys) for the number of macro keys. The LCD was a nice addition, except.. well.. the LCD software sucks. It takes insane amount of CPU cycles without reason (even if I disable all the standard applets), I have had it crashing at random times, all in all, it makes me a very unhappy panda. And all that given the fact I don't even use the LCD...

When I was backing up my old macro profiles, I noticed it seemed to store the settings for the LCD and macro parts of the software in different places, which reminds me of the actual running crapware on the background also being split up in tons of different files. Which brought me to wonder...

Is there anyone here who has a W7 x64 installation without the LCD stuff going? I don't mind if it only partially works (I can imagine there is some coupling between the two parts) as long as I can have my macros without a CPU guzzling, crashing monster attached to it.

Thank you very much

Edit: Oh, and pre-empting any replies.. yes, I was using the latest version of the software at the time, and I didn't have rootkits, spyware, etc. The symptoms also showed across system restores and reinstalls, hence my posting here looking for a way to gut the monstrosity and make my keyboard usable.

yep, you are right.
Logitech LCD manager not perfect program.

i may recommend you to delete it file (lcdmon.exe) and use applets what not need it to work.

moreover in my applet i maded funny thing - when my applet starts - it kills logitech LCD manager and run without it. So you have all macros working well, but no LCDmanager and defaults apps. Of course this is mean that my applet must be one. but i pretty happy with it. But this version still not available - not enought new features to upload - but if you want - i can upload it.

PS. Dwarg's LCD miscellany also can work without logitech LCD manager.
