Q. My Wheel/Roller doesn''t work in my game. What could be the problem?
A. First verify the wheel/roller works in other applications under Windows. Then verify the gaming software has native support for a wheel/roller pointing device and that the gaming software is correctly configured to use the wheel/roller. For more information on verifying native wheel/roller support, and/or configuring the wheel/roller, please consult the documentation provided with your gaming software. If the roller still does not function in your gaming software, you may need to contact the game manufacturer directly for more information.
By default, MouseWare 8.40 or higher will send DirectX6 wheel messages. If the gaming software being used supports this, then the wheel/roller should work correctly. However, if the gaming software being used supports Office compatible wheel messages, you will need to install GAMEWHL.EXE from the Logitech web site. If you do not have internet access, you may edit the Registry to accomplish what the patch file does. Please use the following instructions to do this:
Windows 95/98 1. Click on "Start", "Run" and type REGEDIT [enter]
2. Open the following Registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Logitech\MouseWare\CurrentVersion\Technical
3. Change the following key to read as shown: "MouseHookDLLEnable"="0"
Exit the Registry Editor (saving is automatic) and restart the system. Launch your game and test the wheel/roller to see if it now functional.
As a last resort, you may need to disable the Logitech mouse control center as described in the section titled "Alternate Method".
Windows NT 4.0 If you do not have internet access, please contact Logitech Customer Support to obtain this patch file on disk. Editing the Registry is not an alternative workaround under Windows NT 4.0.
