Driver Doubt.

There are 6 buttons(remote on/off, page up/down,scroll up/
down) in the wireless presentation mouse. This is a new USB device. Will the drivers in windows 2000 (hidclass.sys and hidusb.sys) work for this new device or a new driver must be coded?.
It is given that "If your USB device belongs to the HID class, you may not have to write a special-purpose driver at all because the Microsoft class driver(hidclass.sys) and minidriver(hidusb.sys) fully support the USB specifications." I think, the minidriver in windows 2000 (hidusb.sys) will support a standard mouse with 3 buttons-left click, right click and scroll. Is it correct?. I have to write driver code for the extra buttons. Is it correct?. Shall I modify the code hidusb.sys according to my reqirement?. But the code for hidusb.sys is not in windows DDK. Where can I find the code for hidusb.sys?. Please give me a suggestion.
