Hey,

I've just installed Vista premium, and I'm having a few issues with my gamepads. They pop up on the device manager as HID complaint game controllers, but cannot make it as far as the game controller thing on the control panel, making them useless in games. Any ideas?

Ta.

Its a USB converter to get PS2 pads into it, I've looked everywhere, but everything says its plug and play drivers should make it work, and I can't spot a download anywhere.

LoL ... right. :lol:



Sorry, but the idea is that you have to go buy new hardware, Vista Compatible, and use that. ;)

Have you tried setting them up in the "game controller" if they ain't listed, you got no chance.

Its the play.com usb/ps2 adapter, branded Joytech. Play don't give support, and joytech don't even acknowledge its existance.
