from the Razer gaming mouse help desk (Garena is online gaming)
"Q: I am using Garena and Windows 7 and my Razer mouse is not functioning as it should, but without Garena it works fine.

A: This issue is related to the Garena client and Windows 7 UAC (User Account control). To correct this issue, please adjust these settings in Windows.

Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Change User Account Control Settings -> Never Notify

Then reboot your computer. "

well, that sorts that out. maybe would have been nice if they said exactly what that does

? now that's a sucky device. forces you to turn down the security level of your system just for a mouse??

well, then again, it's razer. nobody here takes them seriously anyways

here in switzerland, they sell keyboards with german, and english layouts. so nobody can really use them except for gaming. typing on them is hell

I've read in another forum that you don't have to disable uac, just configure it to "run as admin".
