It doesn't pay to hold onto old mice

[Comixbooks]

I took out my Logitech G 500 from 2009 new in box it works but Logitech GHUB doesn't detect it.so you can't customize the side buttons or tilt buttons luckily I have a Chaos mouse from 6 years ago that fits the bill.

I wonder if I can macro the button in-game

I still use LGS to run my old G13 keypad since GHub doesn't work with it either.
To use both, one has to be installed first, can't remember what the order was, but if you install LGS and GHub doesn't install, then uninstall it and do it vice versa.

Ok that is what I was looking for I'll try the other software package I didn't have a copy of it. Just tried it it works I had a copy of it on my PC already but I would of never found the file. but been using assorted Razer and Logitech Mice in the past just needed something
with a few more buttons. MMO mice haven't really advanced at all probably because there isn't any MMOs that are worth playing.

That's what you get for relying on binary blob drivers.

hmm... well that stinks, I have an old G500 (witch a borked right switch) I wanted to fix and use maybe....but maybe not?

hmmm .. logitech still lists the LGS for this mouse with windows 11?

No. Not without the drivers and Logitech software to map the extra buttons.

The name of this thread should have been "It doesn't pay to update your O.S.".

The mouse did nothing wrong. The end user did.
