strange...
stupid but did yuo try the gamepads on another computer so we are very sure they
still work? Never know that the cat has been biting on it, or...
Did you update windows, depending on your settings windows also updates automatically...
Should not affect your gamepad...
Try to remove the hardware in your device manager (both devices), restart your computer.
Then check for drivers for win xp for both devices and download them, this way we're
sure we're using the latest drivers. Plug in the devices. Windows should detect
both. Follow the installation procedure once windows asks for the drivers if not
installed automatically and see what happens...
