mouse input issue

hello, i'm using directinput8 for my input stuff and directdraw/3d7 for graphics, under win98se, and for some reason my calls to getdevicestate for the mouse only updates the x movement. the y won't change (and yes i'm moving the mouse in the y axis). the initialization went fine and i used the proper data structure in the call, so i don't think it is a localized coding thing. and even so, i couldn't post code because it's on a different computer. thanks for any help! /edit i'm using yer standard logitch optical mouse, if that makes any difference /2xedit and the mouse wheel is reading as the x-axis. hmm.
