I have two USB game pads that I use. Sometimes only one of the controllers are recognized. If I go into Control Panel -Gaming Options, I won't see the second controller listed. If I try to find it, it won't detect anything. After I reboot, sometimes it will recognize the second controller again... sometimes it won't. When it is recognized, both controllers function properly. I'm running Windows ME and the controllers I use are 2 axis - 12 button (Thrustmaster Firestorm 2) pads. Is there something I can do to prevent this? Thanks.
 
I would suggest that you update your driver for the USB device.
