Hey all,
Unsure if this is the appropriate thread to post this in, but, recently got my hands on a PS2/PSX Controller Port to USB adapter from a company called DreamGear. I found one of these adapters on Ebay brand new in box and decided to use it now that I had the DualShock 2 on hand for use with only PCSX2. Upon opening the box however, what seemed like the driver installation media was in a 3 and 1/4 inch floppy drive, which I don't have a means of accessing.
In search of trying to find a compatible or the same driver, I eventually was able to find a person who's uploaded the drivers to a website and download them, (even if the website had a broken download link, i was able to download directly download the "supposed" driver regardless).
But, I'm still met with issues even after installing the drivers and making sure I ran the program in XP compatibility mode, and running as Administrator. I've tried the installation process two or three times and I haven't been met with any luck.
The controller's "Analog" light does turn on when pressed, and Windows does recognize the adapter, (not the DS2) as a generic USB Joystick.
But apart from that, when pressing any buttons, or trying to run the Calibration tool, I'm not met with any input whatsoever. And I have made sure the controller was properly connected fully into the adapter.
Are there any solutions I can follow to make this work on a modern Win.10 machine? Or am I going have to move most of my pcsx2 library to a native Windows XP machine?
Thanks.
