Two controllers on windows xp

[ODC]

Here is my problem. Maybe this belongs in "windows xp" section, but I hope the gamers here can help me out.

I have two controllers, both USB, hooked up to my PC. One is in the back USB port (gamecube), the other (logitech) I just plug into the front when I need it as it is the second controller and doesn't get used very often.

Well, when the gamecube controller is the only one plugged in, everthing works fine. As soon as I plug in the logitech controller, then it is mapped to "player 1" and the gamecube goes to "player 2". I hate this. I always want the gamecube to be "player 1". I selected the gamecube controller as the "preffered" device under the advanced settings of the game controllers control panel applet, but that seems to have no effect.

Any suggestions?

Does that mean you are using a Gamecube controller with a Gamecube<>PC adaptor of some sort?

Much like PS2<>PC one you can get which gives you the capability to attach two PS2 controllers into the same adaptor.

And is the logitech one a normal USB PC Game Controller?

Cheers

That is correct! Anyway, I found a couple of utilities that fixed things up for me. JoyIDs is one lets you manually set the controller ID for the controllers. Another utility, DXTweak2, lets you manually calibrate your controller. Both these utilities can be found here. I'm Up and working now!
