How to install Windows 10 on the Dell XPS M1730
Hi Chris,
Thanks for hosting this site. On Page 3 you stated:
“The Logitech GamePanel Software won’t become active until after a reboot. If you receive an error when logging off relating to the LCDCountdown applet, then delete the applet from %ProgramFiles%\Logitech\Game Panel Software\Applets\LCDCountdown.exe as it seems to be incompatible with Windows 10.”
Simply turning off the Countdowntimer in the LCD Manager Software worked for me as well. That way you can turn it back on later, if you want to use it.
