Hey guys, I've been trolling around various forums for a few days trying to figure out what is going on with no luck, so I figured it's time to sack up and just post a thread.
I recently wiped my hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7, and everything was fine at first. Then a couple days ago in the middle of playing Arma 3, my middle mouse button stopped working (anyone who plays Arma 3 knows how much of a pain that is). I went into options to rebind it, and it was still bound. So I exited out of the program and found that it's not just Arma 3; my middle mouse button just doesn't do anything anymore. I can't use it to open a link in a new tab in Chrome, if I middle-click on another open Windows Explorer window it doesn't select that window, etc. It's as though I just don't have a middle mouse button anymore.
It's a Razer 3.5g -- I've tried installing and reinstalling Razer Synapse 2.0, which I then uninstalled and tried installing / reinstalling Razer's legacy driver software for this model. Nothing. I'm willing to believe it's an issue of it just being old (I got it... must have been 2011 / the very beginning of 2012) but I'm really hoping it's some kind of software issue. Any help is greatly appreciated -- what do you guys think?
