    Unable to use Mouse properly

    Ok so I downloaded it through Steam, and the game plays fine, but the mouse buttons dont work, and the scroll button does not work, downloaded on home PC and works fine, but at work (we are allowed to download and play all games on breaks) I can only use the mouse to move the cursor, there is no actual hardware cursor at all and its as if the game is not running when I use the mouse.

    Every other game works fine through steam at work, graphics drivers and mouse drivers are up to date, any suggestions please as the game is unplayable at the moment

    Hmmm


    Most mouse issues we hear about are associated with multicore AMD machines that don't have the appropriate CPU patch.*





    There is a CPU patch out there for* AMD*CPUs to adjust the clock speed appropriately.* If this applies to you, try downloading the quick install fix at:* <span style="color: #fb7d00">http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/utilities/DCO_1.1.4.zip</span>

    I am not playing on an AMD

    I am not playing on an AMD chipset, it is intel im afraid. Thanks for the suggestion though, but not gonna patch that as I dont want to mess up the PC, as it is not an AMD chipset.

    Here are the things I have tried so far:

    Steam Consistancy check on the game
    Reinstall of both Steam and Defence Grid
    Disabling all additional options in both steam and game
    Running on lowest graphics settings
    Updating mouse, graphics and directx drivers to latest ones
    Running Windows Updates
    (Restarted after each of these steps)
    Disabling Physx and disabling all Nvidia control panel options

    Nothing changed at all

    Its as if the window isnt in focus, although the bar for the window is the normal blue for a focus window, and the cursor keys allow me to navigate the menus, and the mouse moves in game, but cannot click or scroll. Any suggestions?

    I'm not aware of any issues other than the AMD multicore one.*
