For the older non-USB stuff, you need version 3 of the software. The software on vogonsdrivers.com is version 4 and also not the generic one. I wasted some hours when I started testing my MS Sidewinder controllers as well. Try searching for "SWGameEN.exe". …

I'm amazed that someone thought that SS himself was offering to troubleshoot issues with the drivers themselves, and not the site. No one person has that kind of time on their hands given how many drivers are on that site and how many downloads occur. Well, I'm new here and I just don't know how …

You might want to have a look at the page in question as SS has volunteered himself for exactly that. No, I'm responsible for the site itself, the files are contributed by members of the community. I couldn't possibly be familiar with every file on there. With that in mind, you'll have better luck …
