Controller That Works On Vista Ultimate x64?

Hi guys,

I've recently just got vista and was looking forward to some gaming... But alas it looks as though none of my controllers are working. on XP I used to be able to connect my PS3 controller and load up a driver and it would run a dream. I also had a PS2 to PC adapter, but that isn't recognised either.

So unless anyone knows any work arounds for these (or maybe some drivers which I haven't found), what is the best controller and/or adapter that will run without any problems on Vista Ultimate 64?

Thanks in advance


p.s sorry if in wrong section.

Thanks for the reply. What do you need to connect to the PC for it to connect? Will any Bluetooth dongle do? And also do you (or anybody) know if a PS3 controller will connect to a bluetooth dongle?

Also if anybody has anymore controller recommendations that would be great, and anything which is more like a PS controller the better (just more comfortable for me).
