I just recently upgraded to Windows 7 just after I20 hit so I don't know if its an issue with I20 or a Win 7 thing. Any way the problem is my scroll wheel on my mouse.

The scroll wheel will control the scrolling in windows like the auction house or power selection window but it wont zoom in and out on my character. Any thoughts?

If its a gaming mouse like a razer or logitech and you didn't install the manufacturer drivers then it might not work in full screen programs like coh. It could also for some odd reason not be bound to the camera ingame.

its not a gaming mouse, its a regular microsoft wireless 5 button mouse and the CoH is a fresh install.

A friend of mine who I know is running Windows 7 is reporting the same problem. He can still zoom in or out but has to scroll all the way, and just like you it works normally in the other situations you described.

Are actual drivers installed for the mouse, not just the generic ones? I know windows 7/vista handels drivers alot differently than xp did. I know for some games I had to actually install the drivers to get the full functionality back on my mouse. Also when you say upgrade did you do it as upgrade or full clean install?

I did it as an upgrade from xp and my mouse just worked so didnt have to look for drivers or anything

It's neither - had it way back under Win 9x around I6/7 time.

Couldn't persuade Microsoft's Intellimouse drivers (I think it was around v5 at the time) to allow the scrollwheel to work so just reverted to the default microsoft mouse driver in Windows and everything worked.
