I have a nostromo n52 gamepad for my XP gaming computer and can't figure out WHAT to program each key to do for games. Can someone tell me what they have programmed the keys to do (run, jump, shoot) and their location and why that key is good? Please tell me what game you have this configuration for (fallout, guild wars, battlefield 2142, etc). Especially helpful if you actually have a configuration file for me.

I had to replace the housing on my Sony Ericsson K750, and did so with a W800 housing I got on ebay. Now that I've done this, the 1, 2 & 3 buttons on the keypad don't respond, nor will the joystick effect down or right actions. Everything else, including the camera, works fine. What has happened, and can I fix it? [more inside]
