I recently upgraded my operating system to Windows 10 and now I'm having trouble finding the driver for my Microsoft Sidewinder Gamepad. I've searched extensively on the Microsoft website, as well as on various driver download websites, but I haven't been able to find a suitable driver for my specific operating system.
