When you purchased the USB game pad were you sertain that it could be used on your current operating system because this happen to me with a game controller that i had it worked for my windows 2000 but when i upgraded to xp the controller would not function If that is that case go to the game conrollers website and get the updates or service package so it can work Big chances are that you will find the solution at the game pads website
