I've had my intellimouse for about a year and now since i've reformatted its been having problems with games. The mouse works fine in windows 2000 but when a run a game the mouse usually continuly clicks the left click button. I get theese problems while playing Soldat and UT 2003. I had previuosly played these games with no probs until now. I've tried installing the latest intellipoint software but have had no success.
 
Any suggestions?

Some games will have the option to disable directinput, try and see if there's an option to do so within the console. For example, in Quake 3, with an Intellimouse, the scroll wheel does not work by default unless you disable directinput by typing at the console "/in_mouse -1" Just an example, but hopefully that will help get you in the right direction. Also, I personally don't see the need to install the IntelliPoint software, it's my opinion that it really doesn't help, unless you have a 5 button programmable mouse.
