: I bought a connector to plug in two propad 6 game controllers to pc. They aren't working - any suggestions?
Unless they are digital and say you can daisychain them, they won't work. The normal pc gameport supports 4 analog axis and 4 buttons. Non-digital joysticks and gamepads that have more than 4 buttons use the extra axis for buttons. If you have a Y-adapter for your joystick port, you might be able to get the direction control and 2 buttons working on each but that is it. The only thing I have seen that would really allow you to use more than 1 normal joystick is PDPI's Lightning 4 Joystick Interface. It lets you use 4 non-digital josticks all at the same time. I don't think it is for sale anymore though. Great card, ISA only though... :o(
