How to Convert additional Keyboard into PC Joystick / gamepad

I am playing an EA sports Cricket game. 2 Player is identified/enabled in game only if I plug in a Joystick into my laptop.

Now my joystick is not working, I want to use my additional keyboard as a Joystick so that the game can identify it as a 2nd player automatically.

My system info: Windows 7 64bit

I am using EA sports cricket 2007. The game detects the second player only if a joystick is inserted. I want to play the second player with my second keyboard. I have an additional keyboard. My joystick was working in windows7 x32 bit but when i changed it to x64 bit, it says device(joystick) not recoginized. I tried with multiple drivers from the internet, its not working.

So now i need, either use second keyboard as a joystick or how to use my joystick in 64bit.

Which version of EA Sports Cricket are you playing? Do you simply want to enable the second player, or should the second player use the second keyboard for control? – Der Hochstapler – 2013-05-12T17:46:25.657

I would suggest you to install the games in compatibility mode and check if it works. – Anurag Shetti – 2013-05-14T11:40:37.873

@anurag shetti : the game is portable and the game is working fine. The problem is joystick is not working in x64 bit. And i want to use my keyboard as secondary player. – logan – 2013-05-14T17:15:08.103

Mmm... I think RBjoy is what you're looking for.

Emulate keystrokes and mouse clicks with the joystick or gamepad

Simulating keypresses or mouse-events with the joystick or gamepad

I don't know if it's still compatible with the new Windows OS; by the way you can always try!

It converts joystick input into keyboard input; I dont have joystick , i need keyboard to be converted as joystick input. please let me know. – logan – 2013-05-15T05:19:57.240

I have tried VJoy and it works unless you want an Xbox 360 controller layout. Anyway, I don't quite think there's an official method on Windows to actually split the input of the two keyboards.
