Microsoft Wireless Mouse Wheel not scrolling properly

My parents just got a new Microsoft Wireless Keyboard/Mouse for their Mac Mini. Everything works fine except scrolling the mouse wheel.

When scrolling it takes about six entire revolutions to move a scroll bar one inch. I thought this was a simple setting in "System Preferences" but no matter how I move the scroll speed setting it does the same thing.

I thought it may be a bad mouse so I tried it on a Windows comptuer and the mouse works fine.

Originally I did not install the Microsft install CD. I have tried this using the Mac's Mouse settings with no luck. I then installed the intelli mouse software on the CD and used its settings but it still did the same thing. I even updated all software for the Mac and the intelli software.

The model of the combo is Microsoft Wireless Media Desktop 1000 (ZHA-00001.) It states that it is Mac compatible and even comes with Mac software.

If anyone has any ideas it would help out so much!

Macbook, Mac OS X (10.4.6)
