Hello,its my first time posting here. I'm willing to give anyone $5.00 (using paypal) for solving my contoller problem. First of all I have a usb controller that looks almost identical to the ps2 controller. (except the four buttons on the right side are numbers, not shapes) I just bought it and am having trouble playing games that use many buttons. It appears that when I configure the joystick for the left thumb, the configuration also replicates itself to the four buttons on the left thumb, and therefore i cannot use those 4 buttons anymore. The exact same thing happens on the right side. Its as if though my system recognizes them as the same buttons. And if I configure the 4 buttons on either side, they copy themselves to the joystick as well. This is so annoying + I cant play my favorite games with my controller. Does anyone know how to fix this?

nothing happens when I try to configure the z axis and the rz axis(whatever that is). BTW, I saw some other options when I tried clicking on "add" in game controllers in the control panel. Unfortunetly I dont know what these options are.

yeah, it came with drivers. unfortunetely i dont have the cd with me right now. but once i get it back, what do i do with it? it worked right out of the box, but i think that the drivers were for the rumble only though

As it turns out, you were right "axcc123", all I had to do was callibrate it. Thanx a bunch! I was having problems callibrating it because the analog button was on. After I discovered that I can callibrate it correctly when it is turned off, I discovered that all the buttons are now distinct and unique. You did your part and now I must do mine. As promised, the solver of my controller problem will be richly rewarded with a grand prize of 5 dollars. So give me ur email so I can send them via paypal.
