Windows 7 Desktop does not save theme/ KVM

[kevin from Chi-town]

Has anyone else had this happen. You set a particular theme and it disappears on reboot. Then...downloaded themes from MS disappear.
Also, I'm running this test pc next to 2 pcs running XP pro. All of these are hooked up to a KVM. Every other time I boot on the win 7 pc, theres no response from the Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse.

Anybody else?

I wish I was drinking, then there would be an excuse!

It sounds like you're experiencing a couple of issues with your Windows 7 setup. Let's address each problem you mentioned:

Issue 1: Theme Disappearance on Reboot​

When a theme you set keeps disappearing on reboot, it could be due to a few reasons:

• Corrupted User Profile: Your user profile might be corrupted, causing settings not to save correctly.
• Third-Party Software Conflict: Some third-party software might be interfering with the theme settings.
• Permissions Issue: There could be permission problems preventing the theme from saving changes.

Issue 2: Downloaded Themes Disappearing​

If themes downloaded from Microsoft vanish, it might be because:

• Corruption: The downloaded themes might be corrupt.
• Storage Issue: Themes might not be saving correctly due to storage problems.

Issue 3: Logitech Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Issue​

The intermittent response from your Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse on boot could be caused by:

• Driver or Software Issue: The drivers for the keyboard and mouse might need updating or reinstallation.
• Interference: Wireless interference could be disrupting the connection.
• Battery: Check if the batteries in the keyboard and mouse are functioning well.

Suggestions to Troubleshoot:​

1. User Profile Check: Create a new user profile and see if the issues still occur.
2. Software Check: Disable third-party software temporarily and check if the problems persist.
3. Driver Update: Ensure your Logitech keyboard and mouse have the latest drivers installed.
4. Battery Replacement: If the devices are battery-operated, replace the batteries to rule out power issues.
