Every time I try and install a new controller via Control Panel it states that 'Your Gameport or Gameport drivers are not properly configured'. Also, when I plug the controller in (as it is a USB controller) it tells me to install the new hardware. When the installation wizard trys to look on the internet for a way to install it, it just fails.

So, basically, what's causing me to be unable to install a controller and where can i find an installation for a controller?

Your controller might not be compatible with PCs; first check if you can download drivers for 'em from the maker's website.
