DirectX 10 not fully compatible with DirectX 9 (Gamepads)

Have had a few games not recognising gamepads in Vista.

Even in compatibility mode.

Anyone else having similiar issues? Any workarounds?

i guess you could try installing the latest dx9 package. not sure if it will install on vista x64 though. i know it's definitely needed for a few issues people have had with games on vista x86 - i'm guessing the same applies here that dx10 is not fully backwards compatible. you can try it here.....
