Corsair programming buttons

[Flux Azreal]

Recently my corsair m65 pro's scroll wheel broke and i was to use the two button on the side as a scroll wheel like making the front one make pages go up and button one go down, is that possible? or any alternatives like a program to make keybinds to do that or something? (not just web browsing but for gaming)  ( cant return mouse since i threw away the box)

You can use AutoHotKey to simulate a mousewheel scroll using whatever button/combination of buttons you want:

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn  ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

1::
Send {WheelUp 1}
Return

2::
Send {WheelDown 1}
Return

Simply change the "1" and "2" in "1::" and "2::" to whatever key combination you want to use:

I would probably suggest making your mouse do an obscure combination, e.g. Alt+Shift+F11 and Alt+Shift+F12 for scrolling Up/Down.

The 1 behind WheelUp/WheelDown is the scrolling 'speed'.

Gotta install AHK first though.

 

Although I have heard some people say AHK can get detected as a cheating program in some games, so perhaps not smart to run it during gaming..

 

Or just contact Corsair for a replacement. Have you tried that? In my experience you don't always need the original packaging..

Pinging @Corsair Nick just in case.

Original packaging is nice to include, but not required for the RMA process.  You just need to submit a ticket along with a copy of your sales receipt, and one of our Technical Support reps can help you out with the replacement.  We also have an advanced RMA option if you need your replacement ASAP.  Let me know if you run into any issues.
