Sparky, i would gladly try to help, but you have to tell more about what exactly you are doing, what Windows version you use, etc. Be precise. Not: "i select the control options thing"

Ok i will start again, i use the options within the Tomb Raider game and select to configure my controls, instead of selecting "Keyboard" i select "Joystick", then i press enter on each individual action in the game for example "Duck", then i press the button which i wish to assign the duck action to.
But for some reason, it will not let me assign me directtional buttons on my PS2 controller, or the Upper buttons of my Joypad, you see it hasnt got a joypad option so i tred the Joystick one.

You want Tombraider to think it is a joystick. So try to configure it like it IS a joystick. Maybe that is possible. Go to Control Panel and configure your game device In "Gaming Devices".
