Ok guys , i have maybe find a fix . I have search a lot on a couple of board and i a guy told me in a french one that if you install the INTELLIMOUSE MICROSOFT SOFTWARE with the logitech , it will work . He said its what he did.

I am not sure if this can work , i will try that later ...

Also he told me Logitech are suposed to realease a patch soon.

Which Microsoft software would you use? It asks you for what mouse you have. Obviously you cant say Logitech.

This actually makes sence. At work to get the compaq mice made by logitech to work (They have scrolls) we use the Microsoft drivers.

Ive got the logitech mx700 and also have the problem of not being able to program the buttons.
Mouseware sucs, has allways sucked, and probably allways will suc!
My solution was to not use mouseware, don't worry bout the extra buttons, and bought a Nostromo n50 pad.
Use my mouse for the normal setup shit and the n50 for the left hand.
Allmost never touch my KB now while playing.

I've been thinking about this. Does it work well for MOH & BF1942?

Yes it works for moh and any game you need the keyboard for. You just map the keys to it. I use the same setup for all my 1st person games. I also set it up so it loads on bootup! Its sweet, try it!

I found another problem with the Logitech software.. This is the one that actually made me take it back..

I use the middle button for jumping. Always have since the Logitech Gaming Mouse days..

Now watch.. Press that middle button in.. The scroll-wheel.. press it in.. See how neato that is? Now you can move the mouse around internet explorer and it scrolls the page..

Well in MOHAA.. Instead of jumping when I pressed that button.. Yup.. You guessed it.. It try'ed to do autoscroll in the game.. Very lame..

I did extensive research with this mouse. And I could never find a solution to all it's software problems.. Logitech basically screwed up there mice with this lowsy program.

I just use the mouse without mouseware installed. Works normally in moh and still does the scroll trick yer talkin bout in explorer! To hell with the xtra butts, get an N50 to do the dirty work.
