Solve : PC games and game controlers?

1.	Solve : PC games and game controlers?
Answer» I have a Dell 3.2 G on DSL using windows xp pro sp2. My question is, how can I geta games to work with my controler instead of the keyboard? I have the controler installed, and it WORKS great when on the windowes controler set-up and test, but when I go to play MYST, it will only work if I use the keyboard to control it. I have been thru all the FAQs, trouble shooting, and other things on both my COMPUTER and in the games programes, and I can not find anything that even mentions the use of a controler. All it talks about is using the keyboard to control the game. Any ideas on how to get it to work?I suggest you look over the game site again.. A lot of games do not support the use of a controller or joystick.MYST doesn't run with a controller period.If you really want a straight answer, contact the game manufacturer for support. I'm sure the answer is no however. As said earlier, many games do not support joysticks. FlameThe game box usally TELLS if it supports a controller or not. But like everyone else said "most games unless its a first person shooter don't support it." Quote MYST doesn't run with a controller period. I understand this would be difficult, but would it be possible to directly connect the controller to specified keys or keyboard functions? Understanding what you're TRYING to do.. I suggest looking for a third party software which would map the controller prior to running the game... who knows.. it may work... Then again.. It may not since the game doesn't support it.
