FireStorm Gamepad & Win2000

Hello all. I've seen several discussions regarding gamepads and their merits all throughout the board. I've been using a Gravis gamepad with force feedback but am rather disappointed with their lack of Win2k support.

Since I haven't seen any information about USB converter support under Win2k (of course, I'd be very appreciative if someone could post some), I've looked for native PC controllers I could use. One of the nicer ones I've seen was the FireStorm Dual Power Gamepad by Thrustmaster. Has anyone had experiences in Win2k with the drivers?

If you want to be guaranteed that the gamepad you get will work under win 2k you'd be best to get one of the Microsoft sidewider pads. For some reason these are fully supported.
