    Just got a new Logitech mouse and for some reason "flip 3d" is not an option for any of the buttons/keys on the mouse.
    There is a "keystroke assignment" key that lets me assign a key or, any combination of keys to one of the buttons on the mouse. However, it doesnt let me use the Windows key! For some reason, it doesnt register when I am pushing this key (and yes, the key works fine on my keyboard).

    Is there any other shortcut to do flip 3d other than ctrl+windows key+tab?

    You are not willing to sit down for a couple of minutes to figure out the solutions posted? They are not hard, man, its very straight forward.

    Its not built in Windows, so theres no "'Whoop-de-doop - done" way of doing it.

    I appreciate the help, but the fix you provided is for Vista; I am using Windows 7.

    The one I linked to may say Vista Only, but it will achieve the same result in Win7.
