Logitech MX 310 Mouse
After upgrading to x64 my mouse no longer functions as anything but a 2 button mouse with a scroll wheel. Logitech says that the Vista Native Drivers are sufficient to use but they are not. I have always used Mouseware which allows me to select the wheel as double click and the other buttons to be set for what I wanted. In one of the threads in the Developer newsgroup I saw that someone named Choli had found a solution but she was a guest and never replied when someone asked her for the solution. Does anyone know the solution to getting Mouseware like driver(s) to give this mouse the same functions? -- ajelin |

Logitech states that Mouseware for the 300-series isn't Vista-compatible and that native Vista drivers are all that is needed for "basic functionality". Sounds like the fancy stuff is gone. Solution: buy an MX400 or better. |

Thanks John, appreciate the answer. Read my follow-up post and, if that solution doesn't solve my problems, I will indeed invest in a new mouse. -- ajelin |

I didn't "fook up", after I posted I googled and sammed around to find some solution as I feel, like many others, that many manufacturers are abandoning updating their legacy equipment drivers. I was referring to the post immediately after my initial post, which strangely enough, I found on the Logitech site. I would think that they would refer people to this link. "I am answering my own post but still welcome any other possible solutions since I am not at home so I have to wait until I get there to try this. If anyone has tried this please let me know if it worked. Go to this link for answer: 'http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/42...=us,en?osid=13' (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/42...=us,en?osid=13) " -- ajelin |

Logitech's site is a dedicated support forum, not a Usenet gateway.

For many different reasons you should never assume that everybody reading a
post has any previous posts on their system so you should always include them in your post. "ajelin" wrote in message ...

I belong to several Photoshop forums and almost all want to eliminate all but the last few posts in the thread. My assumption that since this is a forum anyone interested enough or responsive will have read all of the posts, as I do, when I want to see why the post was initiated in the first place. -- ajelin |

You actually EXPECT us to go to the Logitech site to see if you posted anything there???? Sorry... this is an all-volunteer group. You are expected to do some of the work. |

You actually EXPECT us to go to the Logitech site to see if you posted anything there???? *No, of course not*. I said that I found the answer on the Logitech website, all of my posts were posted here, from the initial post to all of the responses I got. I DID NOT post on the Logitech forum, I only found the answer, according to them, to solving the issue. As I also said, I am at work and won't be able to verify that the solution works until I get home. Sorry... this is an all-volunteer group. You are expected to do some of the work. I did do the work. I supplied a link to a possible solution to the problem since on all the forums I visited about the inability for a MX310 to act as other than a basic mouse, this was the first thing I found that had a good chance of working. -- ajelin |
