G27 not working after Windows 10 update

View Comments

• Having this issue with G920 also. Crashes Windows immediately upon plugging in.

  • That could be a different and more severe issue. Post covers G27 being detect as a Driving Force Logitech wheel after Windows 10 update.

    • Merci Gcamaram,t'assure,moi c'est bon,en fait j'ai un pote qui m'as dit de changer de volant g 27,mais y'en a pas,donc j'ai fait tourner les volants et je suis revenu sur le volant j'ai 27,maintenant j'ai plus de problème !,ton Tuto, m'as aider pour une bonne configuration,merci à toi,heureusement qu'il y'as des personnes comme toi,bonne continuation

  • Check last update from Logitech staff about Windows crashing. It is same issue!

• Thanks for this post, only solution that actually worked for me.

  • You're welcome! with the new driver? fresh install?

• Same for me, this was the only solution that worked. I tried both, and the first option worked for me rather than the G29 drivers.

• I have tried multiple times of both methods and neither has worked. Even after I reinstall the old profiler, it still tells me I have a driving force plugged in. About to sell this G27 and just wait and pick up a t500rs down the road... Way too frustrated with windows 10

  • Try this:

    For those who run a G27 wheel and got the automatic download from 2016, here is the fix which allows the profiler recognise your G27 wheel and return to normal.
    Uninstall the G27 and profiler before completing these steps.

    1. Launch lgs510_x64.exe from Logitech drivers.
    2. Don't click anything in the driver pop-up but just leave it opened
    3. Open C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Temp\
    4. Do a research with CTRL+F and search for the folder 2b-LGS-x64
    5. Open the most recent folder named 2b-LGS-x64 and go to \Common64\Logitech\WMDrivers\
    6. Right-click on wmjoyhid.inf and Install. Don't accept the reboot. Close all windows.
    7. Close also the driver pop-up and launch again lgs510_x64.exe. Click on next and so on, as usually. This time, the wizard should recognize your G27 as a G27 wheel Smiley Happy
    8. After installing, reboot your PC.

    And wallah!!

    • Thanks, this worked for me.

    • i dont get a reboot request. i only get a dialog frame saying its been installed, and it doesnt work for me

      • unplug steering wheel while you uninstall and reinstall drivers. Reboot as much as needed.
        If someone wants to hire a remote session to make it work, please use contact form in about page.

    • Thank You! My G27 stopped recognizing the clutch and H-Shifter in ETS2. Followed these directions and now it works. Just one addition to the instructions, leave your G27 USB unplugged until the install asks you to plug it in.

    • Man, I love you!!!
      Your advise worked wonders.

• Thanks! It works again finally!

• I have no idea what I am doing wrong but I cannot locate the 2b-LGS-x64. Not sure I am doing this right? Any help would be appreciated.
  Thanks Ryan

  • is your Windows 32 bits? maybe its x86 folder instead x64. Simplest way to fix it is uninstalling everything from Logitech and installing 5.10

• Does anyone else has the same problem as I do?

  When I connect the wheel into a USB 2.0 slot on the back of my MOBO and Install the lgs510_x64.exe everything goes smoothly. Until I open the profiler to check my button mappings, when I press a shifter button the wheel aggressively goes to the left or to the right. Also when I press a D-pad button the wheel does the same thing, and the only way to make te force feedback stop is either: pull the USB out or, press the upper D-pad. When I disable the force feedback function, I can press any button without any problem, but that is not why I bought the wheel :'). Any thought on how to solve my problem?

  PS. system is Win 10 x64 Education

  • Try to remove all your configs or uninstall al Logitech software with wheel unplugged.

    • @gcamaram

      I've almost tried everything now:

      Installing fresh win 10 and installing lgs510_x64.exe, same problem.
      Installing fresh win 7 and installing lgs510_x64.exe, also the same problem.

      So even when there are none config files the problem persists.
      I cant remember if the wheel spinning is normal inside the button mapping, but the way the wheel spins and the amount of torque it produced doesn't look normal to me.

      PS. When I plug it into my PS3 and play GT6 it works perfectly.

      • it has no sense that behavior. Did you try in another pc or laptop?

      • Did you ever get this fixed with win 10? i'm experiencing the same exact thing with the aggressive wheel while in the profiler.

        • check more possible solutions here http://www.edracing.com/edr/Logitech_G27.php#win10g27

        • Nope, sorry.
          Went on a Holiday for two weeks so havent had the time to solve the problem yet.
          When I do solve it, I will post it on this webpage.

    • Moi sa a fonctionné mais j'ai eu un nouveau problème, en fait lorsque je joue à project cars,j'ai plus d'accélération,sa répond plus! Merci

      • If steering wheel works with one game, then its a game configuration problem.

  • I have the same exact problem with my Driving Force GT. It worked fine before but after I did a clean Windows 10 install this started and I have no idea how to make it work. Do you have any solution yet?

    • Same as said with Rando
      "Here and Ed's post you should be able to fix it but...
      You can hire me for a remote session at no cost, and I'll charge you only if we fix it."

  • That's literally the point. That's a feature to test the ffb feature. Its not a bug.

  • Exactaly the same thing here. How did you solve the problem?

• Thank you so much!
  Finally i can use Dirt Rally again with my wheel!!!
  This saved me from goin back to win 7.
  Only solution that halped me-

• Curious if anyone has had similar problems but with the G29? I have a new G29, works great on my ps4, but when plugged in to WIndows 10, windows 10 treats the clutch as the actual y-axis, rather then the steering wheel. Steering wheel doesn't register anything when turning or calibrating..

  • check in control panel how many logitech drivers versions you installed.

  • As I already said "Here and Ed's post you should be able to fix it but...
    You can hire me for a remote session at no cost, and I'll charge you only if we fix it."

• Does this work on G25's???

  • Yep, same procedure.
