I recently bought a USB Gamepad, but it isn't recognised in games. I know it's not a problem with the gamepad, because I've used it on my boyfriends laptop on the same game I'm trying to play (Rogue Legacy) and it works fine. But on my laptop it doesn't seem to recognise it. When I go into control panel settings and collaborate it works fine - the computer is recognising which buttons I'm using on the gamepad, etc. But it will not work in-game!

Any help?

I have this gamepad - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/310782401143?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2648

And a windows 8 HP Pavillon g6 Notebook PC.

I don't think you can... I've looked through the settings on Rogue Legacy and it doesn't have many. When I used my boyfriends laptop I just had to plug the controller in for it to work.
