MCAMX and Windows 7

[scott gault]

This week my IT guys installed Windows 7 on my computer. everything was going great until we installed Mastercam X. when i opened the program i kept getting the error 15 "Can't find hasp". Well after talking to the Hasp manufacturer, my mastercam dealer (said it was to old to work with Windows7 and needed to upgraded) and trying everyhting my IT guy knew (drivers,64 bit win7, 32bit win7, etc) we finally got it figured out. as a last ditch effort i told my IT guy to try installing the maintenance release that we had for ver. X. BINGO that's all it took and i'm up and running. so if there is anyone else out there that has fought this problem just install mastercam X MR1 and you should be OK>

Just got a new computer with Win 7 64-bit, and I can't get the middle mouse wheel to spin when I click and hold it. It zooms when rolled, nor will it pan when I hold alt and click-hold the wheel. I went into settings>configuration>screen and messed with the middle wheel settings, but nothing works. It's an HP mouse. Any ideas? TIA

Mic6 - Try uninstalling any special mouse drivers. I've had that problem with a Microsoft mouse before, the software was "intercepting" the signal and catching it before mastercam could interpret it.

Hey Aaron. I can't find any specific mouse drivers. I mean the comp is new and I just plugged it in. There is a logitech mouse panel, but I'm not sure how to disable it.

There is a logitech mouse panel

go into the Logitech mouse panel and make sure the scroll wheel is set to scroll

Got it. I uninstalled the Logitech Set Point app, and voila, the wheel spin in MC works. Thanks Aaron

Yep, and you will never need to use the spin of the mouse again

Actually the Logitech setpoint software works perfectly fine, you need to go into to and select the middle mouse button, then select it to function as a middle middle mouse button, then all is fine.
