I seem to be having a problem with my Logitech Wheel Mouse with iFeel. I bought it just for kicks. I was going to use it as a regular mouse. The problem I am having is that the scroll wheel is somewhat laggy. I have tried messing with some of the setting in the drivers but it has not done anything. Does anybody else with this mouse have this problem. How about people with the Mouseman with iFeel technolgy. (the bigger one). Since I got it just for the heck of it. I was thinking of returning it and getting a regular one. Can someone tell me if those work fine. You the dark blue ones. Thanks all.

I actually did have a problem similar to this. The only way I noticed it being corrected was when i didn't install the MouseMan drivers. I really don't see a benefit with using the drivers anyway. Anyway now i just use my mouse without any drivers except the default windows drivers...all is good.

ok..i had the same problem with my logitech mouseman wheel when i used their drivers. DON't use their drivers, instead, use microsofts intellimouse drivers and set the buttons to what u like. hope this helps.

Agree. The Logitech drivers are cr@p and a pain to get rid of completely. Go with the drivers provided by windows.

Nope, sorry don't have the problem *now*.

But basically, like everyone else states the Logitech drivers are a bit screwy. Your best bet is to just use the default drivers that Windows detects for your mouse. However, I'm not sure if you lose your "iFeel" effect though. ;)

Ok, as I understand when people say install the intellimouse driver they mean the default microsoft drivers. I uninstalled all the drivers and now all I see under mice is HID compliant mouse and Logitech USB iFeel Mouse. Is this is what is meant to happend. There is also no longer logitech icons in the system tray. The mouse prefrences are all also standard. So I am assuming this is what yall meant. I think I am going to return this one and get the regular one. The one with out iFeel. It was not even cool for a little bit. I thought logitech was the biggest mouse maker. Why dont they have good drivers? That seems so strange. Oh well. Thanks all for your help.

I have the iFeel Mouseman Optical w/ Logitech drivers installed and everything is working fine. I'm totally lovin' this mouse. The iFeel is pretty pointless tho... but it was only few bucks more so why not.

Same thing here. Although I don't have the newer iFeel or the optical (I have a PS/2 Mouseman), using Logitech's software caused my scrolling to be laggy/stuttery. I removed the drivers/software and went with Microsoft's default mounse drivers. Now everything is snappy/ultra responsive, and the scroll is no longer stuttery.

Guys there is nothing wrong with Logitech drivers,I use the Logitech Optical Mouseman Wheel & logitech cordless before that with no problems(4 years now), the scroll is fine,you should install the latest mouseware drivers,also my friends use Logitech drivers with their Logitechs with no problems,it could be a old mouse driver or software causing the problem,try going into safe mode and removing any old mouse that is still listed in device manager.

Btw the ifeel mouse has different mouseware software to the normal Logitech mice.
