USB joystick in Labview

Have somebody seen a driver for USB three axes joystick for Labview. I have
a two axis whcih work finer (on gameport) but need USB and the third axes.

And is there any faster way to display realtime video in labview than with
the NI Imaq cards. I also want to do some overlay on the pictures.

You can use regular video capture board (such as found in any comp store for
100-200 bucks). Then interface with that board via ActiveX or via VI's that
I once saw in info-labview ftp archive. AciveX stuff was by some company
called Pegasus or something like that. VIs name I do not remember. Both
approaches worked very well with my 3yr old video capture board and I was
able to watch my video camera in real time in labview, same for TV.

Did you get a USB joystick working with labVIEW in the end? It has been a while since you posted your question so i am hoping that you might have solved it and be able to help me.

I am trying to read a USB four axis joystick in labVIEW. And have absolutly no idea where to begin.
