   Need drivers for a PlayStation to PC Converter USB thingy
  Hey peeps,I was hoping someone on here could help me out. I have thing (as pictured, 'cept that mine's more of a solid blue) that I let's you use a PlayStation (original) controller on the PC through a USB slot. Works great, but I just set up a new comp and transferred everything over, but (of course) I've since lost the original drivers diskette for this thing and Windows doesn't recognize it automatically [sad].So, does anyone here either know where I might be able to download drivers for this thing (my fingers are bleeding from Googling), or happen to have one of these and the drivers and be willing to share [smile]?My thanks and a rate up to anyone that can help.Thanks   
  Are you sure you even need a driver for it, most of the PSX converters i've seen just require DirectX 8.1+ if you are running XP or 2000if not then heres a in the dark: this driver;Quote:Original post by kryatAre you sure you even need a driver for it, most of the PSX converters i've seen just require DirectX 8.1+ if you are running XP or 2000Seems to need the drivers ... I know I installed them when I first got it and now Windows doesn't recognize the device.Quote:if not then heres a in the dark: this driverI don't know what that was, but it didn't work ... thanks for trying though.;  Without a proper model number and manufacturer, this is the best I could do:http://www.xinga.com/details/pc/pc2802_en.htmGive that a try and see if it works. If it doesn't, more information on the device would help.   ;  Okay, this one is the driver for your device: http://www.xinga.com/details/pc/pc2002.phpEnjoy.   ;  Ive also got a psx to usb converter which windows wont recognise. I got it to work once by disabling the windows option to power off the device if not in use. This worked well until the next time I booted windows up, where it has failed to be recognised since. Whats interesting is that it would work without a flaw on my old computer which also used windows xp.After doing some research on the net the ideal way to fix this problem is to get a powered usb hub. I may just buy an XBox 360 controller for windows though instead.Regardless, good luck trying to get it to work.   ;  Man, Windows is on crack ... So I tried the files Nemesis posted and no dice. I get different prompts then what's in the ReadMe, and when I try to tell Windows where the driver is, it complains that it can't find the right file.However, I was playing around with it and discovered that if I plug in my old 4-port USB hub it recognizes the hub immediately, and then if I stick the controller into the hub ... it works perfectly [wow].I guess that's good enough for now, though it'd be nice if I didn't have to go through the hub (since I really don't need it anymore what with having 3 times as many ports to use), but I can deal.Thanks for help guys, brownie points to everyone for trying [smile].   ;Quote:Original post by barakusIve also got a psx to usb converter which windows wont recognise.

They're mostly used for hacked controller-to-USB mods, but they may work. Good luck.   ;  I use one of these: clickyYou can walk into any radioshcak and buy one.  I've tried several different types of ps2->usb adapters, and this one is the best.  It's worked with every controller on every computer I've tried it with.
