Windows 8 Motion joy/driver problems (games unplayable, input lag)

Hello! Lately I've been having some problems with Motion Joy. I get a lot of input lag which makes the games (GTA IV and Chrono Cross)I play unplayable. I don't think it's actually motion joy that is the problem, it may be my computer in itself as I just recently reinstalled motion joy and there is one other thing that makes me think it's not Motion Joy.In Motion Yoy you can go into Game control panel and then click settings, and when I do there is alway some delay/lag between actually pushing a button and the computer registering it. Both for the buttons and the analog sticks.What can the problem be? It worked perfectly before, then I started playing GTA and after a few days the I got this problem. I haven't installed anything during this period or updated any drivers of some sort at all.

Try an alternative:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/joy2key/
http://xpadder.com/I used xpadder when I wanted to use my PS3 arcade stick on PC. Give it a go.

Dpadder does not work. What happens is that when I try to configure the analog sticks they do not respond, and when I try to configure the d-pad only some buttons work + the analog sticks are also reacting for some reason, even though I'm just pushing the d-pad. And joy2stick I can't even install as there is no installation file even after extracting the files?Thank you!

Bumping this as I still haven't found a solution to my problem!
