Which one?
I have vista and cant get the old xbox controller to work with it after trying serveral different drivers/apps etc. I also have a Saitek 2900(i think) wireless pad, again, with vista drivers but that wont work with most games either. I love the xbox one cos its the best damn controller ever!

Sooooo, does anyone recommened a pad that is tried and tested with vista? I want to use it for racing games more then anything.

Cheers!

Oh budget wise, needs to be less then a nifty!

yup

vista has drivers for it, and once it's plugged in, it'll find newer ones on windows update too
