Connecting two PC controllers at the same time

Hello everyone,

I would like to connect two wired USB PC gamepads to my computer (Windows 8). When I plug in just one, I can modify the controls in the game and it works. But as soon as I try to play in split-screen mode, the game asks player 2 to join by pressing start, but nothing works.
I have tried many software like xbox360 accessories, controlMK, and Motionjoy, but my two gamepads are not recognized by the software. I don't know if it's because of the drivers or the fact that I'm on Windows 8 and these software versions are mostly for Windows 7.
Thank you for reading this post. I know there are many posts on this topic, but they involve connecting a PS3 controller, and I'm trying to connect two PC gamepads simultaneously, which is why, after fruitless searches, I decided to make a new post.

Jim
