Logitech G-15 (etc) Software Autoloads WMPlayer.exe and slows down windows startup A LOT

Not me - until I finally ran across this...  posting it for others to be helpful for wondering why windows takes 30 seconds longer to start up...  its because the keyboard lcd driver starts up wmplayer (windows media player) which loads all your song/movie etc data bases etc. 

Anyway... here is fix:

Hi Guys I've found the answer woooohooo!!!

I reinstalled with X64 drivers and the issue came back. After lots of reasearch I found this to be the answer.........

the problem is with the VISTA SIDESHOW application for WMP. go to control panel> side show> and UNCHECK the WMP app for MONO and UNCECK ALL in QVGA (unless you have a G19 with color screen). you can even uninstall the app and the QVGA device in its options by clicking on it along the top then uninstall in the options

Unfortunatley this app is FROM MICROSOFT for many devices and is incompatible with this one

So there u go.....problem solved :-)
