intellimouse explorer 4 0 scroll wheel not working

Hi
I cant get the scroll wheel to work anywhere in Vista - IE, Office, Explorer, etc etc. I performed an upgrade of my XP SP2 laptop which went ok and am so 80% happy with it. Just a few outstanding issues of which this is one. I had the latest version of Intellisense installed v5.5 before the upgrade and can still run it to customise the mouse functions but if i try to uninstall it with the intent to reinstall it, the error messages are this software is not compatible with this version of windows and a policy restriction prevents the install of this application respectively. I have tried using the application compatibility wizard with no luck and dont know what else to do. There is a windows installer cleanup utility but have held off using this as it was really desinged around the office xp era and so dont want to risk screwing up vista stuff (YET!)
Any ideas would be much appreciated
Regards
Mike

Hi Mike, I have the same mouse as you I changed the mouse to intellimouse optical and the scroll worked though I use the scroll wheel to clcik to close and that doesnt work. Kevin "Mike (Bryett Enterprise LTD)" wrote in message

Hey
Fantastic, thanks for that, finally have some scroll back, obviously its not meant to be like this as we lose specific functionality to each mouse but will just have to wait till the software catches up
