    I've just purchased a Razer Naga so I can enjoy WoW more but I got 2 problems:
    1. If I plug that mouse into my laptop and turn computer on, it will be stucked at alienhead logo. I need to unplug it to boot to windows normally then I can use it.
    2. Because Alienware M15x doesn't have a separate numpad so when I switch razer naga function to Num, the key bindings for buttons from 1-12 are not correct. They seems to map with Home, end, delete, arrow keys or so. I need to turn on Numlock to use the correct Numpad but it is annoying because when I typing in chat, I need to turn it off again.

    So can anyone share some experience with this mouse?

    Thanks :)

    The boot problem is common with any peripheral attached to the PC. It's always better to connect them afterward to avoid boot issues.
    Do you have a way to remap those?

    After some research on Google, I've found out that remap those keys to another ones (F1-F12 for example) is the only choice :(
