Are controllers for the original Xbox known to act strangely? I have a couple MadCatz wireless controllers, and I can't figure out what they're doing or not doing.

I started playing Halo 1 a couple days ago, and on my good controller, the buttons themselves seem to work fine, both during the game and on another game, but on the main menu, or when I pause during play, nothing but the start button and D-pad will do anything.

If I switch to the other controller, though, it all works fine. Of course, thanks to Murphey (and his law) that's the one with the broken joystick o_O lol...

I have a similar but different problem with a third game (The Suffering: Ties That Bind, if it matters)...except that NOTHING on the "good" controller works at the main menu, but it DOES work on the pause menu, and works fine.

Any ideas what's going on, or what to try or do about it?
