Mouse not working properly in game.

Posted by: l606s

My mouse wheel isn't working properly in the game. Let's say I have 6 weapons. I select weapon slot #1 and use the mouse wheel to go to the next weapon. It goes to weapon slot #3!!! No matter what weapon slot i'm on at first it still skips to #3! And when it's on weapon slot #3 it won't let me select any other weapons with the mouse wheel. There are no updated drivers for my mouse. And I have new sound and video card drivers. Activision support was no help. I have a P4 @ 1.4 ghz. Running WinME. Any Ideas?? Btw, it's not the mouse input setting or the sensitivity that you can change from the in-game menu. I tried those.

If your using a Microsoft intellimouse or Logitech
try this:

Click the "Start" button on the Windows Desktop and select
"Run...".
- On the Open line, type C:\WINDOWS\REGEDIT.EXE and press [ENTER].
- From the Registry Editor screen, double click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
- Double click on SOFTWARE.
- Double click on Logitech.
- Double click on MouseWare.
- Double click on CurrentVersion.
- Single click on Technical and information should be displayed on
the right side of the Registry Editor screen.
- Under the Name column, double click on the "MouseHookDLLEnable"
entry and the Edit String Dialogue box should appear.
- Modify the Value Data line to read "0", and click the "OK" button
- Exit the Registry editor (saving is automatic).
- Restart the system.
Your game software should now be able to properly use your Logitech
Wheel/Roller.
this fix also works for intellimouse

I don't have either of those mice. I have a Genius usb wheel mouse made for HP. (It came with my computer).

Uninstall the drivers and use the default windows PS/2 mouse driver instead. Also watch the Logitech site for WinME-compatible drivers.

Also, something to consider: A lot of games just don't fully support absolutely every kind of mouse out there.

I already have the default drivers installed. There are no updated driver for my (bootleg) mouse. LOL! I just don't get why it skips weapon slots and always goes to #3. I can't remember if it use to work at first with the game or not. But I already tried a re-install of the game with no luck.
