The software that utilizes ''vJoy'' drivers, such as ''GameCube USB Adapter Driver'', can treat the GameCube controllers as generic gamepads for Windows. They can be configured in Dolphin like any other controller. Unlike ''vJoy'', Dolphin's native support will offer more straightforward and added missing supports from ''vJoy'' (i.e. force feedback), and offer better latency. ''vJoy'' and Dolphin's native support conflict with one another, so to use the native support in Dolphin, driver services must be stopped through ''GameCube USB Adapter Driver'' 's window. You probably already have ran '''''Zadig''''' setup if the ''GameCube USB Adapter Driver'' version is v3.0 or later. Skip to [[#Dolphin Setup]] below if you haven't encountered any problems with it.

=== Driver Installation with Zadig ===
=== Windows ===
Plug in the GameCube controller adapter if it hasn't been already. Download and launch [http://zadig.akeo.ie/ Zadig]. If you're using the Mayflash adapter, make sure you switch it to "wii U" or Zadig won't pick it up properly.
 
 
==== In 5.0-2352 and newer ====
Download and install the latest [https://github.com/daynix/UsbDk/releases x64 usbdk driver].
 
Note: Installing the usbdk driver <b>does not</b> break compatibility with the zadig driver in older builds.  The adapter must be in Wii U mode if it is a third party adapter with a PC mode for Passthrough to work.
 
 
==== Before 5.0-2352 - Driver Installation with Zadig ====
Plug in the GameCube controller adapter if it hasn't been already. Download and launch [http://zadig.akeo.ie/ Zadig]. If you're using the Mayflash adapter, make sure you switch it to "Wii U" or Zadig won't pick it up properly.
