Silly question

[SmittySr]

This maybe a silly question, but I am going to ask anyway.  This has been driving me nuts, I have just recently been dabbling with gaming on my PC.  I installed Tiger Woods 2008 and everything is perfect, except,  the machine wont let me play the game with the controller I bought (logitech dual action USB).  It will however let me play using my mouse.  I'm sure there is something that I am missing? 

Please help the rookie.

With some of the logitech controllers you have to download software (normally comes with the controllers). I have a couple of those controllers myself. I don't remember if they are plug and play though. Also if you haven't already, check in the game options to see if you can change the controls to work with your controller. Sorry if this doesn't help any, hopefully it does though.

I did get a driver disk with the controller, and successfully loaded it.  I can go into control panel and access the controller to run a test sequence on it.  I also went through all the options that I could find on the game and didn't recognize anything that looked like it would fix the issue.

Then the game either doesnt support the controller or your missing the settings in the game

You probably dont have it set it varies on the game but some times you have to do it manually.

keep in mind vista is renown for its lack of plug and play options, i had the same controller it worked with xp, but vista wouldn't recongnize it...

you probably needed a seperate driver.  there for the answer to your question that your going to ask is in it.
