Fallout 3 and xbox 360 controller.
I have an xbox 360 wired controller but when i start f3 and go to settings and controls the controller isnt recognized as an option? I have tried unplugging and restarting laptop and plugging it back in.

Is Steams input mapper enabled? If yes, it swallows the gamepad input. Disable it.

You're welcome :p2chell:
I myself am annoyed by Valve enabling that, well, crap, by default. Its great for PS gamepads that don't have much support on PC games, but its a horrible idea to enable that for XInput gamepads thus disabling all games' own support. No matter how great Valve's input mapper is, disabling things that just work out of the box, replacing that with "works after tweaking" is, IMHO, dumb and not customer-friendly.
