| Mouse scroll wheel doesn't
Windows XP Professional SP2. The mouse has an irritating problem. Whereas all the mouse buttons work, the scroll wheel won't do anything untill I go into control panel, change the scroll behaviour, change it back and click OK. It now works, but if the machine is turned off, or put in standby or hibernated, the scroll wheel stops working again until the above is repeated. Any ideas? Anyone?  |

The entry existed but was set to 0, even though I kept setting the scroll lines to 3 in the control panel. |

Well it had, but only in part. Although most screens now scroll correctly, Internet Explorer does not. And it won't until the mouse scroll setting in control panel is reset. I also found that the registry entry that you provided is automatically reset to '0' when the machine reboots or comes out of standby or hibernate. |

Same thing happen with all profiles? ---------------- Happens in the only other account on the machine (Administrator) as well. |

Since you say it resets coming out of standby or hibernation, I would expect that Windows isn't doing the "resetting", so is there another driver you can use that does make the mouse wheel work, and try that? Even if the extra buttons aren't recognized it would eliminate the driver changing the wheel setting. |

Since you say it resets coming out of standby or hibernation, I would expect that Windows isn't doing the "resetting", so is there another driver you can use that does make the mouse wheel work, and try that? Even if the extra buttons aren't recognized it would eliminate the driver changing the wheel setting. ------------- I don't think I can use another mouse driver since this is a wireless mouse and requires its own driver to support the wireless bit and to support the extra buttons not found on your common or garden mouse. |

I think I'm going to bounce this in the suppliers direction, the machine is still under warranty. |
