I recently upgraded to Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview Build 10130, and now when I use the volume wheel on my G510s keyboard, it causes the screen to blink, and a beeping sound every time I scroll it. Has anyone experienced this or know what I can do to fix it?
Maybe try and find an updated Driver for it On Logitech's site.
I did upgrade the Logitech Gaming Software to no avail.
Honestly not to be a jerk or anything but trying out Beta software in the form of Windows 10 Preview you can't expect your hardware to work like it is suppose to work in previous versions of Windows without proper driver support in Windows 10.
Windows 10 Preview is only recommend those who understand Windows and computer hardware in deep detail, Logitech and other hardware manufactures will only begin to release Windows 10 approved and compatible drivers when the final retail version of Windows 10 has been released to the public and even then it'll probably be a couple months wait for some who have outdated hardware to get drivers optimized for Windows 10.
As for now, I find this part of the forum very useless and it's hard to help anyone especially those who are not that knowledgeable about how Windows as an OS and the computer as hardware works in the first place .
You take the risk of trying of upgrading to Preview software (not recommended, only trying of preview on separate hard drive is advised and even then only advised for people who understand computers) and now your hardware does not work as intended so I guess there's a lesson that can be learned here...don't try out beta software without proper computing knowledge; upgrading to Windows 10 Preview does not give you a free upgrade path to Windows 10.

Thanks for the many assumptions about my competence level, but you did a pretty poor job of not sounding like a jerk.
I know how to troubleshoot Windows & PCs in general just fine. Creating discussions on a subject is how things get fixed, and sometimes people have the same kind of issues and find their way to a forum from a Google search.
Your entire post was very condescending, and I hope you take the time to re-read it and avoid sounding so in the future, because even if your post had contained relevant information to my question (it did not) it would have still been very off-putting, especially if it was someone who didn't know much about computers that just wanted a helping hand.
It's Beta Preview software don't expect too much I know I didn't when I was running Windows 8.1 Beta and besides this isn't the Microsoft's official forum if you want to really get help directly from Microsoft let them know about your problem on Microsoft's forum, that's what I did for the one bug I was experiencing with Windows 8.1 Fast Startup in which case I obviously Google for answers first to see if others were experiencing the same bug.
But in this case we're talking about Windows 10 Preview and hardware drivers that's don't exist yet, who knows if the problem is driver or OS bug related, keep in mind Windows 10 kernel is 10.0 from 6.3 in Windows 8.1 most if not all hardware drivers will have to be specially optimized for Windows 10 to work with older hardware and that's up the hardware manufactures to get them updated and released in time for Windows 10 retail release.
Nemix, you can't just dismiss every abnormality as a bug just because its a preview version. How does that help anybody really? If you don't have anything constructive to say just don't say anything.
Scorned, I have several Logitech keyboards here that work fine on Windows 8.1 and 10. All my media keys including volume up down work fine with just the stock Windows drivers. I do have setpoint installed but it's not needed other than I use it to link devices on my unifying receiver. You could try installing setpoint to see if it helps, if it doesn't just uninstall it again. I'm running a K350 wireless keyboard with a M570 wireless trackball. You could also try uninstalling the Logitech gaming software as a test. Then reinstall it again.
Congratulations Nemix, you utter tool. Due to the fact that this wasn't looked at during Beta due to people with the same mindset like you, when you could, now the bug is still there in Windows 10 and it's now on release and nobody knows how to fix it.
I am still having issues with this, My screen blinks and the volume never stops changing after I use the scroll wheel on the keyboard, I have to restart to fix the issue every time. I am on windows 10, whatever the recommended version is as of October 20, 2015.
