PhotonX25 Issues.
I recently purchased the Alesis Photon X25 MIDI Keyboard Controller from Musicians Friend's ultra-slow service and had some difficulty getting it to send MIDI data on Windows XP.
The Alesis X25 page only had a driver download and a method of re-flashing the Photon, but neither of these two solutions let MIDI data get through to Windows XP.
It turns out, that my Logitech web-camera has a driver that conflicts with the Photon X25. Alesis offered me a registry fix and instructions on how to remove the conflicting driver via email, but it would have been nice if it was actually posted on their website. If you have a Logitech web-cam that might be conflicting with your keyboard, I've provided a link to the files below:
Download the Logitech Fix files here.
The only sucky part about doing the registry fix and driver uninstall is that your web-cam will NOT work once you've got your Photon working! I'll be searching for a solution to balance out both worlds, but until then, you're going to need to play favorites. If anyone knows of a fix please let me know in the comment section! Thanks!

Hey there, I just felt I had to stop by, simply to say -
THANK YOU, SO SO SO MUCH
Just got my photon through in the post today and could not figure out for the life of me what was wrong, but I was having the same problem :) Really appreciate it, top man.
Cheers, Aj
