saitek x52 pro button not working elite dangerous

I am so glad that it's not only me that's having this issue!. I just want it to control the UI mode and/or freelook. I am VERY well aware of the need to modify the profiler software's default profile to remove shift modes, I have clutch turned off, I have read and followed dozens of threads here, on reddit, and on some Star Citizen and IL-2 sites (where most people want to know how to turn the mouse nub off, because they bump it).

and I'd also like ot add I am about 8 hours into this problem, I've installed and reinstalled and uninstalled and reinstalled every driver and profiler for the joystick multiple times. Oh, and while the x52 Pro in-game profile does see the scroll wheel button, if I make a custom profile, it doesn't see it any more. One thought is that I do use a Razr mouse and keyboard, and perhaps their drivers and/or Synapse interfere with the mouse stick being used - but the Saitek driver control panel shows the input, so I know the hardware is fine. My mouse nub doesn't do anything, in game or in OS (Win 7, 圆4) the game doesn't recognize the inputs or the 'mouse' button, or scroll wheel - oddly enough in the default x52 Pro profile it DOES still use the scroll wheel button to toggle flight assist.

Really hoping someone with more know how than I can give me some pointers to get this working as it should again so I can get on ED to try out 1.3! Opening the control panel, all movements and inputs are being registered as they should, also all other throttle axis and buttons work in-game. I've recently formatted my OS and reinstalled the drivers and programming software I was using for ED previously which worked perfectly with no issues, however now the mouse stalk/ministick, mouse button, scroll wheel and scroll mouse button on the throttle are no longer controlling my cursor in Windows or in-game where they did before. Quite lost on this one, annoyed too because I was all geared and ready to play PP last night too, Google didn't turn up anything much of relevance. Hello all, (I know this is technically off-topic and deserving of the 'hardware & technical' pit, but there is little to no exposure there, and I need some help ASAP) Saitek X52 Pro - Works, but no Mouse stalk/scroll wheel controls?
