Mobil 1 Rally and MS Sidwinder Gamepad Problems

td911
I'm running Rally Championship (U. S. ) with the latest patch. My problem is my controller (MS Sidewinder Gamepad) only works in the ARCADE mode. If I go to a rally, my controller does not work, heck even my keyboard doesn't work (ESC is not recognized).
