hi all,
well, initially i was trying to buy xbox 360 controller for PC, but ended up buying a Rs200 ps2 gamepad for PC :p (no money)

the problem is that it's button layout is flawed. for a ps2 controller, the button layout is
3
2 4
1

however, the console has layout as:
1
4 2
3

anyway to change it???(any config files, or remapping?)

What games do you play? You can modify the settings from in-game or the virtual console settings.

what's the other one for?
is it vista compatible?

dunno about Vista compatibility. doesnt Vista notify when an non-compatible driver is being installed?

btw there's no harm in trying:))

the other one is basic driver set. (you dont get the extra (macro...)settings).

the macro (brand) settings is the one shown in pic above:)),

& that R1 & R2 is set thru the game for either Gearshift OR nitrous & gearshift OR speedbreaker

does that work? i mean, the game automatically thinks what option i am trying to press? (gearshift with nitrous is preety slick combo)

you've to set the KEYS in the game.

& you can set only one Key for an action. (R1 for UpShift)

take a look in this pic.
