Intellimouse Driver

Quick question...I just updated to Windows XP from 98, and everything is
great except one thing. I had to download a new driver for my
intellimouse, for windows XP, but now my options for my extra buttons
are severely limited. I used to be able to set my extra buttons to F
keys, which helped a lot in AutoCAD, but with the new driver, it only
gives me a very limited amount of buttons. Does anyone know of a
modified or hacked set of intellimouse drivers that let me set the extra
buttons to anything I want? Thanks in advance.

P.S. I have crossposted this to all newsgroups I thought were relevant,
but am only subscribed to microsoft.public.hardware. Please either
leave in the crossposts, or reply to me in that NG to make sure I can
see your reply, I would really appreciate it.

The problem is related to the Intellipoint drivers. In version 5,
Microsoft has removed serveral features/setting. If you can, try to
find version 4 of the drivers.
