Please try completely uninstalling the Logitech software, make sure
you're running the current versions of Cygwin and X11, and try again.
If that does not help:

In addition to *attaching* the output of "cygcheck -s -r -v", please
also attach the /var/log/XWin.0.log from the failed attempt.

Thanks for taking a look into my message. I have uploaded the relevant files
(cygcheck and xwin.0.log). I am able to see some differences between the
Xwin.log entries of successful (multiwindow) version and the failed
(rootless) version. But perhaps they are directly related to the multiwindow
and rootless options themselves.

Is there a way I could obtain a stack trace of the crashing process on vista
?? 

Thanks,
Rincewind
