Mouse Problem

strikeuk
I tried to install the mouseware v9 for my logitech but after it restarts it doesn't detect my mouse. It doesn't even give me the option to use the mouseware settings but only the windows one. Any solutions for this problem?.

Best Surround Sound Speakers?

kjordan2001
I am looking to upgrade my speakers, but have no idea which ones are the best. I really want surround sound with 4 to 5 speakers. Preferably 5, but if there is a 4 speaker sound system that gives out better sound, then I'll go with that.

thermal grease question

three
Just out of curiousity, when I purchased my AOpen AK73 pro mobo with 800MHz T-Bird the local pc shop asked me if I wanted them to place the cpu and HSF onto the mobo, and since I've heard so many horror stories about how fragile the tbirds/durons were I told them to go ahead.
