I'm surprised that gamepad even works beyond Windows 98/ME. I got into emulation in 1999 with a Pentium 166 (overclocked to 200MHz) running 98SE and even that machine didn't use a gameport/parallel port controller (Boom USB PSX/N64 adapter). All of my PCs use USB gamepads, and I refuse to use a keyboard for playing arcade or console games. Somewhere out there, someone with a 486 and Windows 3.1/95 dual-boot is looking for an original working Microsoft Sidewinder gameport pad to go with their system.
