Keybinding issue with mouse buttons

[Ixovil]

<p>I like binding buttons to my mouse: I find it easier to press said buttons on my mouse. But doing this in EQ2 I run into a really weird problem.</p><p>When I have both mouse button 4 and mouse button 5 bound to a hotbar, pressing one will sometimes activate the other. Specifically if I click a mouse button faster than about once per second, it'll alternate back and forth between actually being the correct mouse button, and instead being the other.</p><p>This issue persists even if I log out and then log back in.</p><p>Has anyone else had a similar problem? If so, what can I do to fix it?</p>

<p>Greetings,</p><p>What kind of mouse is it?  Can you try binding the mouse buttons to another key on the keyboard?  I use a Razor Diamondback myself and I find that I get better results setting mouse buttons 4 and 5 to the 'O' and 'P' keys, respectively.</p>

<p>I'd still like to know whether or not changing those functions to mimic key presses rather than mouse functions works, if you could let us know</p>
