when i hook up my xbox pad up to my pc with usb, i cant get anything involving left and right together, or up and down together... i can hold down left and hit up and down or up and hit left and right but when you put up and down or right and left together, it shuts off the one you were hitting. i tried start-select-up or whatever, and i installed drivers and stuff but i just cant get it to work. could i get some help?

Your converter is crap. Try the Trio Linker Plus, I hear that's a good one.

I'm not exactly sure what drivers you're using, but the ones I'm using can be found here. http://www.redcl0ud.com/files/XBCDv106.exe

Install them and then open the XBCD folder. Choose "Setup Utility".

On the screen it opens up, right in the center, there is a picture of a D-pad. That is what you are currently using for your directional arrows.

Click on each direction and change them to ABXY. It shouldn't matter which ones you set to what, because it should automatically map.

Now everything should work fine. I hope I was of help.

What Xbox pad are you guys using? I have the RedOctane Ignition 3 Multi-platform pad and I can't get the USB adapter that came with it (and connects to the xbox control cord) to be recognized.
