Thanks,
Jimmy

Did you install the drivers before inserting the Leonardo? Here are some instructions from Arduino.cc

Sometimes the Leonardos don't play well with USB3.0 ports. You could try a USB2.0

Tried all that, even removed all the usb drivers from the system, so far have tried on two pc's a 64bit windows7 and a 32bit windows7 laptop same result.
