Sound card game ports have a 50/50 chance of working with any given
game controller.. your money would have been better spent buying a USB
game controller instead. However visit www.geniusnet.com and download
the latest drivers available for your Sound Maker 5.1 to see if they improve
the functionality of your sound card's game port, and then use Control Panel/
Game Controllers to detect and configure your game controller.
