I have Vista 32 bit version installed on my home computer.
1)The logitech laser mouse will jump around,you can be pointing and it will dart to side or top.

2)The sound card will not install,it states that no sound card detected
I have Creative Sound Blaster 24-bit
The problem may exist with other operating system so I may be able to cross reference.

Thank You

First I'd uninstall and reinstall the mouse. Let Vista lookup drivers on the Web. If you still have the problem, look up on Logitech's site and see if they have beta drivers for Vista. I have a Logitech USB Optical and it works fine on Vista.

I also have a Creative Labs Audigy sound card and they have Vista beta drivers for them. Use their autoupdate feature which will detect that you have Vista and direct you to the Vista Drivers.

Question: is it no sound card detected in Device manager or is it the standard no drivers installed?

In Device Manager,no sound device is listed.
Also in the system tray,the icon is present,but it has a red X and states that no audio device is installed
Will try the other suggestions and get back to you.

I found that the XP drivers for SB Sound Cards work perfectly in Vista so if there are no current Beta Drivers you can always install the XP drivers and have a working sound card.

I would also try the same with the Logitech mouse if Logitech doesn't have any newer drivers available.
