Microsoft Sidewinder USB Gamepad?

Is there any way to get this device to work with Vista. I can't find Vista
drivers for it at Microsoft's web site.
If not is there any programmable gamepad other than the sidewinder anyone
would recommend that works with Vista. I need one that can be set up to
emulate keyboard keys for various games. This is the second gamepad I've
purchased and neither of them works. The Logitech I purchased said on the
packaging it was Vista compatible, however it doesn't work either.
Thanks

I use the Saitek 2600 rumbleforce. It works great. All Saitek gamepads work well with vista and it recognizes them automatically.
