I had the exact same problem with my ACM. First off make sure that the
drivers for the ACM are installed, under adding new hardware. if they
are, and mine were and you're still getting the problem, like I was try
this. Plug your joystick into the other port of the ACM (the one you're
not supposed to use according to the docs) This solved all my problems.
Its great now I have my phoenix on the left port and my gamepad on the
other and they both work. Hope this helps.
