Drivers for PS2 to USB adaptor

You guys are smart with this stuff.

I bought a usb adaptor for my PS2 controller on ebay for $2 about 3 years ago. The drivers that came with it were AWESOME. Perfect configurability and full force feedback. Excellent pice of programming.

The cord met its end with my chair rolling over it, so I purchased the blue house N64/PS2 controller adaptor. I like it but it has two very low points. It uses the default windows controller configurations, and it lacks force feedback because of that.

My quesiton is, how can I get the drivers from my old cord to work with the new adaptor I have now, if at all possible? I've got the drivers on an actual disk and three ISOs on three seperate harddrives so that I never loose them.

How badly damaged is your original cord? You could try cutting out the damaged part and splicing the ends together.

Anyway, if you can even use the drivers for the old adapter, when you plug in the new adapter to the usb port and it asks for the software to install it, select the option to find it yourself and direct it to your old drivers.

More than likely they're uncompatible. You can always search the internet for third party drivers that have force feedback. Sourceforge.net is usually a good place to start looking.

Thanks for the tip. Yeah I was thinking of finding the break in the cord and stripping it. I might just do that. The device I have now is plug and play unfortunately, its one of two N64 controller USB adaptors made, of course I opted for the cheaper one, and got what I paid for. I'll check sourceforge, thanks again. If anyone else has some ideas shoot em my way.

I bought one of those adapters as well, it didnt support the dualshock, but it has 4 ports and the drivers on it work wonderfully...

Giving us the name of the product would help us look as well.

If you don't mind the PS3's R2 and L2 triggers, you can also use a PS3 controller with a PC if you like. I believe I saw drivers that even allow you to use bluetooth on your PC.
