Windows ME only loads microsoft drivers?

I have a PS/2 logitech mouseman wheel mouse with the latest mouseware installed, and Im having a problems with the middle button function in games. When in a game, the 'middle button' function does not register at all, where as other button functions are recognised (i.e. if the button is set to ctrl or shift). Windows seems to refuse to load the correct logitech drivers for the and instead loads some drivers for a standard microsoft optical mouse, thus meaning the third button function is not recognised. I have tried changing the drivers to the correct logitech, and also uninstalling both the software and the drivers for the mouse and then reinstalling them, but after a reboot the standard microsoft drivers are again loaded in place of the correct logitech drivers?!? The mouse was working fine until just a week ago or less, and I haven't installed anything new since then... Any ideas on how to fix this would be gratefully received.

Yeah thanks, but thats what I've already done. I've tried every method that I can thik of to try and get the right drivers loaded but ME seems set on loading microsofts optical drivers. Im even thinking of removing the relvant dll's for the microsft mouse drivers so it's unable to load those, although I can see this causing problems as Im sure some of these dll's will be required for any mouse you install, whilst others will be specific to the microsoft optical mouse, and Im not sure which are which...

Any more ideas from anyone?!?
