    I always set the scroll wheel button to prone in Xp and Vista , but in W7 it does not work in W7 , when i press it nothing happens in game i cannot configure it.

    It might be because in W7 you can switch between windows with the scroll button , so how do i disable it and get it to work as normal again.

    I have tried looking in the mouse setting , but nothing seems to work.

    Thanks.

    I just tried on Windows 7 Pro with BF2 v1.5, the middle mouse button works fine. Not a Windows 7 issue. (How do you switch windows with scroll button?)

    Install your mouse driver should solve your problem.

    I am using the demo , I have a Microsoft compact mouse 500 , and W7 installed the specific driver when it installed.
