Joypad Not Recognized error 43

[-Caster-]

Hello,

So, as the thread states, my joypad (on laptop) is not being recognized by Windows 7 (Error 43).
The thing is, that from time to time, when I plug it in, it is recognized and the other times, well.. it's not. And lately the odds are like 20:1 to not being recognized at all.
I've tried uninstalling the driver and then search for updates on both the internet and local storage. I've tried plugging it in into my PC, and yes it gets detected instantly (PC is on Windows 7 as well).
My laptop model is Lenovo T410.

I'm using an adapter to connect PS1 joypad (Dualshock 2) to my laptop.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

Error 43 is a device manager error. Try updating drivers for the laptop as it could be your USB drivers or chipset drivers.

Could you add an alternative site? For some reason I cannot access Lenovo support for the past few days.

I wouldn't suggest using any drivers other than whats on your makers web site as they may have altered hardware. I don't have a better alternative. You may need to ask someone else to download them for you as the site is working fine from where I am.

I've managed to access the site, the recommended chipset was already installed, and there are no downloads for USB, Firewire or IEE.
