Belkin Nostromo SpeedPad n50 on Windows 7 vs. Windows 8
You see, Windows 7 recognized the Belkin Nostromo SpeedPad n50 alright. But it couldn't figure out what game controller it is. Therefore, it simply identified the n50 as "?". So that's what it showed in Total Game Control. But Windows 8 actually recognizes the Belkin Nostromo SpeedPad n50 as "3 axis 10 button gamepad". Ok, it still doesn't know it is the n50, but it's a start. With Total Game Control, I just have to tell each n50 profile to use "3 axis 10 button gamepad" instead of "?". Fido I have same problem any solution found,. speedpad n50 Windows 8 64bit Afterbite You just have to select "3 axis 10 button gamepad" in Total Game Control.

The key for the n50 is missing in the /Joystick/OEM/folder, however you just have to manually make the key and subkey values for the n50 under the /Joystick/OEM/ folder exactly as shown in this picture from ThePcMechanic's blog: http://blog.thepcmechanic.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Scr . . .

I've just upgraded to Windows 8.1 and it freaked me out when Total Game Control told me that it can't find my Belkin Nostromo SpeedPad n50. I won't play any games without it. But luckily, it was just because Windows 8.1 has gotten smarter about the n50.
