I bought a new Logitech Chillstream joypad for the PS3, and had no intentions of using it for the laptop. However, I have tried using it for the laptop, but most buttons don't seem to work. For example, whilst playing Grand Theft Auto, I could run using the analog things, but I couldn't punch, steal cars, etc. The same happened when I played Rayman - only some buttons would work.

Any idea why this happens? Do I need a different pad for the laptop or are there any ways around this? It's really really annoying me.

Thanks.

Did you just plug it in or have you installed any software/drivers?

I just shoved it into my usb port and it said it had successfully installed.

Ooo-er

Obviously, it lied Try having a look around for some drivers - the logitech site would be my first stop.

I found this on the logitech site:

It says no software or that is needed, just a USB port.

Thanks for the help though.

The only other thing I can think of is to try manually mapping the buttons within each game

I'd have thought that there'd be some way of mapping the buttons in-game. Certainly the case for Joysticks I have bought in the past - Try looking through the in-game options.

You're talking to a completely useless computer user here.

How does one go about such a process?

Actually, I've just had a look at the configuration on the Grand Theft Auto game and some features were turned "off". When I turned them on the pad works fine.



Sorry to bother yous guys, and thanks very much for the help.
