I think the other one is the virtual
keyboard driver for the programmable buttons. They should both be there.
As for why you can't open the joystick control panel, I dunno, try
uninstalling and re-installing the drivers. You haven't just installed
Colin McRae 2 have you, because it has probably with a few MS controllers.

Virtual keyboard is a seperate entry. That makes three for one device.
Sorry, my mistake, there is 3 entries and there should be 2 entries.
