The PantherXL right now does not work in Win2000. If you goto www.pantherxl.com they have a msg board there where the topic is quite frequently about win2k drivers(mostly brought up by me). I have come to the conclusion that the ppl at Madccatz when they aquired this technology from Assassin3D did not know how to properly write drivers for it so they basically tweaked the existing drivers. Now that Win2000 is upon them they are completely clueless on how to properly impelement the Direct Input needed to get this controller to work. They do say however that they will have Win2000 drivers before or just after the release but I highly doubt it.
