I know using 0000 as passcode the mighty mouse can be used in Win XP. Apple does not deliver drivers for the wireless version of this mouse, alas - so the mouse is detected as a standard mouse. Vertical scroll works, side-buttons are mapped to explorer’s Back function.
I am looking for drivers/software that would support the side-scroll function of the track-ball. Presumably it’s possible to reuse drivers from Windows-mice and tweak their recognition of the Bluetooth mouse
I do have a older iMac, don’t have leopard or Boot-camp… yet. Will consider that upgrade and snitch the files you indicated from that drive - kudos for the reply.
Mouse works on the default xp bluetooth drivers, yet does not support the side scroll. Please confirm the bootcamp drivers add this functionality.

I have the same issue but I was told by Apple that you can get a bluetooth driver on windows by using bootcamp assistant (included in Leopard by burning the drivers onto a disk…I have directions below)
I got this directly from apple.com
With Boot Camp Beta 1.4, the Macintosh Drivers CD includes drivers to support these within Microsoft Windows:
* Apple Bluetooth
* Apple Keyboard Support
* Apple Trackpad
* iSight Camera
* Startup Disk Control Panel for Microsoft Windows
* Atheros 802.11 Wireless
* ATI Graphics
* Broadcom Wireless
* Intel Chipset Software
* Intel Integrated Graphics
* Marvel Yukon Ethernet
* nVidia Graphics
* Realtek Audio
* SigmaTel Audio
Now if you want to manually find the drivers, here are directions on where to locate them–all you need is a DVD Burner to burn the drivers
The directions are:
Control-click on the Boot Camp Assistant program
choose Show Package Contents
navigate into Contents
Resources
Inside there you’ll find DiskImage.dmg. Just burn that disk image, and you’ll have your Windows drivers CD.
I’m assuming you have a Mac since you have a mighty mouse.
If you can not find diskimage.dmg in your resource folder, you can fix that by using your leopard disk.
I spent an hour looking for a solution as well ,and hopefully this works out for you as well.
Unfortunately, I left my Leopard disk back at home, but I’m coming back later tonight…so if your patient I can give you a response by the end of tonight since I would like to make the fix as well (currently running Vista with my Mighty Mouse with the same default settings.)
Alright, I just got home and yes I got my side scroll to work =).
All you have to do is insert Leopard when your running Windows and theres a driver (one which is Apple Bluetooth enabler)
