XBCD - XBox Controller Driver for Windows 2000/XP

About

All buttons are supported. There are two versions of the driver; one supports 10 buttons (1 through 10) as digital and the two trigger buttons (11 and 12) as analog, and the other version configures all buttons as digital to overcome the fact that most PC games do not yet support analog buttons.

Directional control can be switched between the Left Analog Stick and the Digital Pad by pressing both Analog Sticks simultaneously.

Right Analog Stick is used for X and Y rotation.

Troubleshooting

If Windows says that it couldn't find a driver for the device, then head over to the Drivers/Patches section at USB Man and download USB View.

Run usbview.exe and look for something like this. The XBox gamepad will come up as a Generic USB Hub with 3 ports. The gamepad is connected to the first port and the memory card slots are connected to the other two ports.

Click on port 1 of the Generic USB Hub and notice the values idVendor and idProduct on the right side panel.

Open "xbcd.inf" with Notepad and look for the following entries.

[DeviceList]
"XBCD XBox Gamepad"=Install, USB\VID_0738&PID_4516
"XBCD XBox Gamepad"=Install, USB\VID_0738&PID_4526
"XBCD XBox Gamepad"=Install, USB\VID_0738&PID_4536
"XBCD XBox Gamepad"=Install, USB\VID_045E&PID_0285
"XBCD XBox Gamepad"=Install, USB\VID_045E&PID_0202

These entries belong to different gamepads from different manufacturers. As you might have noticed, VID_xxxx contains the value from idVendor in USB View and PID_xxxx contains the value from idProduct. For your gamepad to be recognized during the driver installation, just make a new entry in "xbcd.inf" with the idVendor and idProduct of your gamepad, save the file, and try installing the driver again.
