So I have one of these:
And I have these:
When I hook this up to my AWE64 in the following order:
Whenever I switch to one of the controllers and click "refresh" in the game controller control panel in windows, nothing ever shows up. Am I doing something wrong?

Is that a full 15 pin switch?
My guess is that it's specific for some application, like most SCART switches or 80 pin IDE cables, and therefore it's not a generic 15P4T selector...

I believe so yes, last time I opened it up all connections had pins to all 15 spots on each connector on the switch and the DB15 extension cables I'm using also have all 15 pins populated, but that really shouldn't matter should it? Any pin location on the actual controller side that doesn't have a pin assignment should just be ignored since its a passive analog chain all the way through.

If you have it set to one of the controllers and first boot up does it show in game control panel ?
Those are "digital" so switching without restarting windows will probably never work as they need to be powered thru the 15pin at Windows startup for proper detection iirc....
Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

Ah, good point I hadn't thought of that.
