I want to install 8 Button game pad in XP

Ali · February 28th, 2002

I have a saitek 8 Button game pad, but in windows XP there is option for a maximum of 6 Button, right now I am using my game pad as a 6 button, but I want to use its full buttons..!

just try a few drivers for 8-button gamepads (www.driverguide.com, username: drivers, password: all)
and you should find one that works. It probably doesnt even have to be a saitek driver. I have a pad with 8 buttons that had no drivers whatsoever. I just downloaded a random 8-button pad driver and it worked just fine with it.
