Hello,

Recently I bought one of those cheap USB PS2 Controllers. When I first plugged it in and tried it with Snes9x it worked like a charm. I installed that PS3 driver and then I downloaded USB Overdrive to use it to play Fable, but this app won't let me remap the analog sticks correctly, so I tried ControllerMate.

Although ControllerMate and USB Overdrive identifies it as Generic USB Joystick DragonRise Inc., ControllerMate failed to detect any input from the device. Now the joystick won't work with Snes9x anymore and the only app that seems to recognize it is USB Overdrive.

I tried to uninstall ControllerMate and reinstall the PS3 driver but it didn't work. The joystick works with Windows, but on Mac I can't make any program to detect it correctly except for the USB Overdrive.

What am I missing here? Is there anything I can install, maybe a driver?

Thanks in advance.
