Folks

I have an XBOX layout controller for PC but the game does not auto connect to it even though it is turned on in the "Game" settings.

Is there anything I should be doing to get it up ??

Google "Motionjoy" and try running that. Once you install it and it's drivers you can mask your controller as an official 360 controller. I use it to mask my PS3 controller as a 360 controller and have been playing Rage with it on my PC with no problems.

Thanks

But this just doesn't work just tried it and as I've got a PC Compatible gamepad (Looks exactly like xb 360 Controller) it won't find it as a loaded device keeps looking for PS stuff

My 360 controller works well,I use it to drive! You said you went into settings and went to gamepad and enabled it?

You should have just purchased a real Xbox controller. Sure they are expensive but the build quality and software drivers are excellent, plus there isn't a single game releases in the last 3 years that does not automatically recognise and configure it.
