logitech webcam instalation problem  

ok...So is there any way to COMPLETELY wipe the drivers for this device? generic ones from Microsoft, installed ones from Logitech...ALL of them. ? Because from the device manager, nothing happens.

Excuse me for asking a seemingly obvious question, but what do you mean by 'nothing'?

My bad for being not too detailed..i delete any driver related to the webcam, but the green led light on the camera remains lit..after i do a restart and windows just auto-instals the generic drivers by itself..if i do not do a restart and proceed to installing the logitech drivers right away, the webcam stil does not function..it displays nothing, just a black screen..no matter what i do i cannot get it to work..thats why i ask if there is any way to delete anything related to these drivers for good, so that i can start over.

Is this while keeping the webcam plugged in at all times? I'd suggest what Mitchell suggested and unplug it, install the Logitech software and drivers, and only plug the webcam in when the installation sequence asks to?

Ok...Just did it..i followed your advice to the letter...i even added the step to not get auto installing of drivers from microsoft store..(check top left corner of SS)..as soon as the installation asked me to plug the webcam , i did, but apparently the popup of windows driver auto instal thingy caught up and the installer gave me this error..

P.S : this IS the installer from the CD that came with the webcam...and i HAVE used it in previous windows (x32 bit though) installations.

Yes and yes...(as i said earlier i had it previously installed on win 7 32 bit..

After i skipped the message and installed anyway, it still used the generic driver (see screenshot)..the result was the same..non functional camera. (black screen)

Truly, i have no idea what could it be...
