Launch Manager Will No Longer Work...

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
HELP! Launch Manager will no longer work on my Aspire 5003WLMi. I decided to install my dad's old Logiteck keyboard and mouse. Now when I use the shortcuts, for example: FN + up, I no longer get the green onscreen text. I have tried resetting, resetting without Logotech stuff in startup, but Launch Manager wont even open now. Please help...

Typical of old Logitech drivers - they remove keyboard handler filter of Launch Manager dring install. Try reinstalling Launch Manager, it usually works fine and makes both work.

I assume that I can get these drivers from Acer's website?

Yes, from Acer website. If you are not afraid to tweak registry, in regedit navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\ACPI\PNP0303\ Then under that key there is another and you'll see Class attribute with value Keyboard in the right panel. Edit UpperFilters value and add a new line with
DKbFltr
That's Launch Manager's filter. You won't need to reinstall anything then. If you have some Logitech value in UpperFilters leave it there, just add DKbFltr and make sure it's on a separate line. Reboot. That's it.
