Mad Catz R.A.T 5 and Windows 10?

An
4

I bought a new laptop. I have had a Mad Catz R.A.T 5 mouse for years.

In the beginning, the mouse worked immediately after connecting. After that I downloaded the drivers and software and now the mouse no longer works. I always get "driver error". I deleted everything again but to no avail.

Important:

Windows 10

Is there anything special about the mouse (RGB light, software-controlled DPI, software-configurable buttons?)

An

Yes, so I can adjust the DPI with a button. With the software, I could also assign the keys differently.

The mouse lights up as soon as I plug it in, but after about 10 seconds it stops lighting up.

No

I also have a Mad Catz R.A.T 6 mouse. I read on Google News a few years ago that the company went bankrupt. If you search the Internet you can still find something for the driver.

Yes I heard that too. And yes I find the drivers and Software.exe from the official site. However, it still does not work: / or I'm shown that I have to insert the mouse, but is still not recognized. Well, I'll try again later, otherwise I have to get a new one…
