I know this is kinda simple but there are 2 columns to bind, the left hand side which is only for your keyboard and the right column that is only for binding the mouse.
Also if you used your mouse software to bind a keyboard key to your mouse, then you have to bind the mouse on the keyboard side.
Just throwing that out there, I'm sure you know that already tho.

To fix this go into your documents folder and delete the BF2042 folder. This will delete all your settings but it will fix this issue. I did this yesterday and it worked.
