Your device might not be recognized.

If you have Windows7: go to Start > Games > Tools > Input Devices and you'll see if it's working or not.

have the same problem with my ipod not being recgonized. (Darn You Apple! I will not buy an iMac just to get my ipod working!)

Pretty much, if its USB drive, there might be a problem with the Driver Bays and your just gonna have to connect and disconnect till it works.
If your using a controller not native to Windows, its most likely not gonna work unless you download a software to recognize it.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

Does your gamepad work with other games?

I have this problem, too, shank, castle crashers and battle chess, work fine, but spiral knights... not so much.

I have an XBOX controller by the way.

I would be using control mk but

My madcatz cpntrollers always glitch with them. On my old one it would rise slowly on its own and when I pressed the up button very quickly it would go down. I also wasn't able to click with it. Are there othee programs?

Or Joy2key (think thats how you type it) or google a program that maps keystrokes as buttons.
