    yep it all works with vista. I always got away with just the xbcd drivers as I havnt had a game that doesnt support the gamepad yet that I wanted to use it for.

    Nope, that is one game I meant to get around to one day tho.

    but there are 2 versions of that game if im not incorrect one supports gamepad and one doesnt.

    I'll have to look into it to make sure, I also know there are 2 versions of resident evil 4, that I know for sure.

    @ ViciousXUSMC
    The version I had supported the gamepad (at least the buttons) but you couldn't remap the left and right controll stick to change the cameraview with the move commands and vice versa...
    @ sa_ill
    What exactly are you trying to do? Is there an option in Oblivion to enable the controller and play like on an XBox? Or do you have problem maping the buttons of the controller?
