gta 4 not detecting my controller?

[speedyallan77]

i have gta 4 and it doesent seem to support my joystick.i dont have an xbox controller but gta  only works with that,is there any way to work around that?
any software that enables me to use normal joystick with gta 4?
other games allow me to configure normal controllers with it

Have a look at Xpadder - it's a powerful utility that will let you map any button, including on an unsupported gamepad, to any keyboard and mouse action.  It may take a little time to set up but it'll do exactly what you need.
