Does anyone know if this is possible?

Basically my girlfriend wants to play WoW with me (woop), but she's only got a pish laptop... she also wants to use a controller (I've tried to reason, women). I've got loads of monitors so I can run an extra desktop using ultramon, but is it possible to segment the input control devices so that one desktop uses my keyboard and the other uses a controller? Would be ideal, don't fancy repairing my old PC.
 
Regardless of how pointless it might be to play with a controller to you, that's how she wants to play. She's not a level 80 raiding every night, she's likely to not get past 30 and spend most of her time looking at the cute bunnies and talking on skype with our friends. There's no reason why you can't bind R1/L1 to closest target, X to mouse click and other buttons to 1/2/3/4 etc. It's quite playable.

My question was really if it's possible to bind an input device to an application independently, but apparently it's impossible? Yet this is the exact function that multiboxing software does, although it binds an input device to multiple applications, but it can differentiate between the two and shut off one. There's seriously no software out there that allocates an input device to a single application and removes itself from functioning in windows/other apps?
