    Was the problem with Logitech SetPoint "disabling" SideWalker's hot keys ever fixed? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling SideWalker after installing SetPoint as mentioned in one thread, but no dice... :(

    My setup is Windows XP Professional SP2, SideWalker 1.43.0.3 and Logitech SetPoint 4.00.121.

    Thanks in advance! :)

    Could you share more detail on the issue you are refering to. I might be suffering the same problem with my hotkeys.

    Here I thought it was a BIOS issue.

    Sure, basically what happens is that while SetPoint is running my two custom hotkeys (the 1 and 2) become useless. The only fix that I've found is to end SetPoint which is hardly a fix as my mouse's custom settings are then lost and replaced by the default. A double-edged sword, eh? XD

    My BIOS is 116B if this happens to be related. ;)

    I've been bouncing around a few different BIOS versions, and I thought my button issue was related to that. Sounds like you might be on to something though. I think my buttons stopped about when I picked up my VX Revolution which uses the setpoint software.

    I just kinda ignored it since I'm not really using the two keys that much (sorta forgot they were there)
