Mouse Settings

[Guest]

I changed the speed of my mouse but every time I shut down and log back on it
resets to the factory slow speed. Does anyone know how to stop this? Thanks

 

[Guest]

Same thing happens for me. Whats the fix here. Why does Reboot clear out MY
settings?

 

[Guest]

Yes, my mouse settings are not sticking. very annoying! Any fixes on that
people? Thanks!

Being as how my ESP powers are nil.

What mouse? What driver version?

Well, being that it doesn't seem to be a particular mouse problem (reading
through the Vista forums I can see many are having this problem, some with
Intellipoint Mice, some with Logitech, and some with all other kinds) I
thought it was something to do with the native Vista drivers for mice in
general. I have an older mouse, a logitech that used to run under mouseware
(not Vista compatible). the mouse works just fine without installing any
other driver, but the settings for the speed don't stick. I tried installing
the new setpoint for logitech but it is not backward compatible for legacy
devices just yet, as they indicate on their website.

Any help? Thanks again!

Perhaps a new mouse with Vista specific drivers is in order.

I have a USB Microsoft optical mouse and it is working very will with all custom
setting remembered.

What you say is logical but it is a lot of money to spend to find it still
does not fix the problem.

Does anyone know what the cause of the problem is and
had anyone found that using one with a specific Vista driver fixed the
problem.

I'm having this problem also. Very annoying having to speed up the mouse
every reboot. Using Logitech MX510 optical mouse. I'd love to buy a new
mouse, but newer mice have less side buttons and i really love my side
buttons =) heh.

Interesting though, this problem only happened after installing logitech's
driver, then uninstalling it after finding it screwed up my button settings.

After uninstalling logitechs driver and installing the windows native one,
it resets on reboot.

I have read the Logitech's have trouble with Vista,,,, look for
updated drivers and rodent utilities.

 

[Guest]

logitech's website now says "we do not support windows vista, use the native
driver".
err.. rodent utility? haha, i imagine that means some kind of mouse
software.. but uhh.. elaborate please? =)

 

[Spirit]

Yes some Mice include with their drivers some utilities to
add features or functionality to the rodents. Hence one
sometimes needs to update both the drivers and any
extra utilities.

 

[Guest]

ah yes. that was the issue, i installed the utilities, it made games have no
idea what my mouse buttons were, and since uninstalling the utilities i get
this problem. No logitech utilities available for my mouse in vista anymore.
