I have connected the device, and the rest was a breeze. The optional key assignment is designed clearly and simply. For me, the mouse without any problem (Win7 x64) ran. The cable guide (with windable role) and the magnetic connection of the charging cable were really great.
I play only Call of Duty or similar games, otherwise the mouse is used only for normal office use.
Unfortunately, the mouse wheel has been so ausgelutscht that this clouded the game powerfully after 3 months. A detent position the mouse wheel is no longer noticeable and actually you do not know how far you have now controlled the set function. Who knows Call of Duty, know that such a problem often prove fatal :-).
The mouse wheel is this a flaw of the Sidewinder, I have now discovered by research in many forums. A really frequently occurring problem. So if you to the product you are interested, should be aware of this deficiency (does not have to be with each mouse so).
Bottom line I had for three months a really great gaming mouse. Amazon has reimbursed me for the return shipment takes the purchase price.
THANK YOU AMAZON and keep it up.
For my part now reach either the Logitech G700 or the Razer Mamba.
