Default Xbox wireless controller for windows

Hey guys, any help would be appreciated. So i got me a wireless controller for windows. I've currently just updated to windows 7. I've played fifa 10 with the controller with no problems but every time i try play nhl 09, when i'm pressing the movement stick the keeper seems to get substituted for another player resulting in an open goal situation which then the other team scores.. I've read bout it and it seems to be a driver issue... There are currently fixes for vista and xp but none of then work on windows 7 and i can't find one that does work... If any one can help me with a driver fix or something for windows 7 i'd appreciate it i really enjoy playing this game and it sucks that this happens cause it spoils the whole game... Thanks guys

Assuming you have Windows 7 64bit,

Hopefully that helps.

have you actually tried installing the vista drivers with compatibility mode? Most of the drivers i've tried tend to work like windows 7 is no different to the other OS's.
EDIT as above, i don't like it when you can't find them but someone finds them in a few minutes

Thanks but those are the drivers i'm currently using, the controller is working but not with nhl09... Seems like, when i press the left or right button my keeper decides to leave the field...the button that i must press for the keeper to leave the field is holding the pass button for long, the keeper will then leave the field.. But i dont even get to press the pass button, just left or right and he decides to leave... There are unofficial drivers that work and fix this issue on vista and xp, i've tried using them but they dont even want to install... I've also tried changing the compatibility to lower os's on all the drivers but they wont install etc.. Thanks guys
