Here's the story...

I have a Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000. I didn't bother installing the driver since I know that Vista natively supports all the functions this mouse has. I modified my AHK script for this mouse and it works fine.

Vertical scroll worked fine in most apps, but not in Access 2007, so out of curiosity I try IntelliPoint to see if that fixes it. Not only does it not fix my vertical scrolling issue in Access 2007 (with this mouse only) but then WheelLeft and WheelRight won't work in my AHK script ... AND ... the damn driver has no support for modifying the functions of left and right scroll.

Left and right scroll work fine in any app with a horizonthal scroll bar. But now, when pressing those buttons, some other function name is sent, instead of the original WheelLeft and WheelRight.

I tried uninstalling IntelliPoint, still nothing. AHK, still can't see when I press left and right scroll buttons.

Anyone ever overcome something similar to this?

EDIT: I also tried to capture the left and right scroll clicks in the AHKHID script. No dice... All mouse functions register, except left and right scroll.

I never tried the AHKHID script before I installed IntelliPoint, so I'm not sure if they would have registered at that time had I tried it. I would imagine they would have, since WheelLeft and WheelRight worked fine before installing IntelliPoint.

Just a shot in the dark, but have you tried rolling back your mouse driver?

you mean like reverting back to a previous Restore Point?

I've disabled that since I rarely use it.... though I gotta admit I wish I had in this case.

If you mean something else in regards to "roll back" please enlighten me.

I have gone to the Device Manager and Right Click > Uninstall on all the HID mouse objects and then reboot and have the system re-detect them. That didn't work either.

EDIT: I looked at the device again in the Device Manager, and it has "Rollback" button greyed out

I didnt think to check that so I'm not sure if was greyed out before I started tinkering and "trying" to set things back to the way they were. ...... is there an IntelliPoint removal tool out there somewhere?
