XFX Xgear gamepad issue

Sadaiy · 12-28-2005, 12:14 AM

I bought this XFX xgear gamepad from ebay, this is a gamepad that comes bundled with a Nvidia 7800 GTX and with Far Cry... So i guess it is a fairly popular controller... It is a USB game pad, with playstation 2 like rotating controllers that rumble and with four buttons on top...

When i plug it in and run the given software it says "not programamble" ... any suggestions ? :rant:

I payed $35 for this controller, it looks and feels real nice but it doesn't work...

anyone with any technical know how or driver / USB knowledge please help...

oh when i go into control panel and check it out through the windows "calibration" thing i can rotate both controllers but none of the buttons or the direction pad are active...

cool controller.

Ok go here http://www.xfxforce.com/web/support/viewDriver.jspa .
In file type chose Game accessories drivers
in Product name Xgear game controller
in Operating system your version of Windows.
If that doesnt work, i dont know what works. Hmm pdate your motherboard drivers and bios might help if everything else fails.
