    I am trying to assign a hotkey to my back button (button on the side of the mouse) and it wont do it. It also wont assign one to the middle mouse button (the one when you push the scroll wheel).

    If I unplug my G7 and plug in a wired USB microsoft mouse I can assign all these buttons.

    WHat gives?

    My guess is that G7 needs a firmware update..

    The G5 was buggy at first, a firmware was released shortly after and that solved a bit.
