I just bought a USB plug in games controller, similar to a PS2 controller. I've tested it in Control Panel and it works fine. However, when I run a game, it doesn't actually do anything, and I still need to use the keyboard. What am I doing wrong? As you may have guessed, I'm not very PC savvyWhy is my PC games controller not working?
You have to go into the options or settings for the game you are playing and enable the controller and possibly set the controls. You can buy a controller programmer here for free if that doesnt work.

Do as the first answerer said and if it doesn't work then you might need to change the controller setting in your game options to fit with your new Joysticks . It may need identifying the USB port [usually there are 4 ports] or need to reset its buttons .
If it still doesn't work , quit the game then try re-plugging the controllers . If the problem still persists , Restart your PC .
Some games [decent games like WE] preserve your controller settings automatically even if you quit the game , some don't so be careful you can save them manually and re-load them later .
Peace .
p.s.
What are you playing ?
there is a chance that the game your playing doesnt support controllers try a different game and see
does it come with a drivers disc or make that`s compatible with pc check on the back of the packaging
