Intellimouse optical middle button problems

[Guest SAL]

Hello,

I can't get my Intellimouse optical's middle button to work as a double

click. I'm on XP pro sp2.

I have Intellipoint version 5.4 installed.

 

I would like to have version 4.12 installed (for VB 6 scroll support) but it

doesn't make the middle button work as a double click either. When I open

the Mouse setup dialog, it shows that the middle button is set to scroll and

double click but the double clicking doesn't work...

 

Anybody have any ideas about this?

Isn't 6.1 the latest mouseware for these items?

I suppose I could try that again but I was hoping for a better answer than

that...

One of my computers does this occasionally. I have learned to open the

mouse settings, change the middle click to something else, apply and

save. Then I re open it and change it back to double click, apply, and

save. This restores the double click for a month or so. A crude fix

for a crude program. My other three computers have Logitech mice and

use the Logitech setpoint program and never do this.
