Hello!
Just bought 2 SNES USB controllers. They works just fine while I play on my laptop but on my desktop they don't work at all.
I tried a guide that told me to get Joy2Key wich I have and it finds the controllers but when i'm going to do a config and it says press left, and I press left nothing happens. Same for all the other keys.
None of them seems to work in the emulator or Joy2Key.
The emulator's i've tried is Snes9x and Zsnes.

I can also see the controller in device manager and windows says it got the latest driver for it...

Snes usb controllers should not need drivers. If they do, that may be the issue.

What OS do you have?
Where did you buy the USB, does it have a brand name?
Did you try before you installed drivers.
How is the device listed in Device Manager.
If you go to control panel and under devices you should see the controller, there is a test app. Do any buttons register in there?

My bad, the controll don't have "real" drivers. Just that when u plugg a USB device in it says that the drivers was sucsessfully installed pretty much.

I got windows 7 on both computers.

Here is a link to the controller I bought.

Ok that is the correct way to do it and that OS should be fine. Did you understand this question?
