on the Microsoft Mouse 4000 (or other blue track mice) you need to set the wheel button to "middle click" and also use a top to front push on the wheel button to make it work in orbit mode. straight down or front to back push won't work reliably since the new devices are "game ready". once you get used to the new push action with your finger it all works as expected.
