I looked up XInput on Wikipedia, and it indicates that DirectInput should work fine with XBox 360 controllers, and even have no limit on the number of controllers supported (as opposed to XInput's imposed limit of 4).

Along with the fact that XInput is only useful for XBox 360 controllers, I don't think that's the direction I should go into.

But I'll install try the XInput driver anyway when I get home.

Cheers,

EDIT: Don't know why I'm talking about DirectInput -- I'm not using DirectInput. I'll look into XInput, thanks
