Not possible.

There aren't any Xbox -> PS2 adapters (that I know of - link 'em if you got 'em).

You'd be much better off getting an Xbox -> USB cable ($8) and then using the XBCD drivers.

Even if you got so-called "lag-free" adapters, this would likely introduce an unacceptable amount of lag.

Besides...if all you want is an Xbox-to-PC adapter, buy a couple of extension cables and make one yourself. Xbox controllers are USB devices. There's a good amount of tutorials out there on how to wire the plugs together, and there's homebrew driver support out there for them. Usually, I believe they just show up as HID devices, so you may not even need a driver.

Sinistar: after reading closer your rite i htink all the adapters are ps2 > xbox but not vice versa

Cutriss (I can't spell): i've thought about doing that but i'm worried about doubles...will they work ok if i do that cause with my friends ps2>pc adapter you need to hold start/select/up arrow for 3 sec to calibrate it to work with doubles

AFAIK, all doubles configurations on the PC require two separate controller interfaces. You'd be better off asking this in the Simulator forum, as the only controllers I've used for DWI are my phalanges.
