Thanks for the suggestion. After another 6 attempts the Touch finally did a clean re-install. That's great but the combination of EDO and TT3 is imho, superb and I want to put both back. Is there a sequence to ensure that both work ok together?

[SlimDevices: Touch] EDO/TT3 problem
I have both EDO and Touch Toolbox 3 running on my Touch but today came home and the start up screen with 'advanced digital output unsupported by Logitech' was showing. After a couple of second the screen went blank and then the message would repeat. I have tried using the factory reset button (at least 6 times) but the message appears again as soon as the Touch starts up. How can I get back to a proper fresh install?
