Thanks for the quick reply David.
It a pretty old PlayStation 2 style controller called "Speedlink Strike Gamepad".
I figured it out for my situation and it's working like a charm now.
For everyone else having trouble:
1. Download "x360ce.exe" (32 or 64 bit depending on the game).
2. Install it in the game folder.
3. Run as admin and let it install missing dll's.
4. Configure layout for controller remapping and save it.
It still didn't recognize the controller ingame, but depending on the game you might need to rename the created xinput dll to either:
xinput1_1.dll
xinput1_2.dll
xinput1_3.dll
xinput1_4.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll
Hope this helps anyone else get their old stuff working again.
