Go into the FFXI Config program and configure the Gamepad commands.
 
Please make sure that all of your Network cables are connected properly, and try again later.

At least thats what SE always tells me when something f'ks up.
 
The MS official drivers for XBOX360 controller aren't as great. I suggest downloading XBCD drivers. It's over on redcl0ud.com forums..here's a link to XBCD drivers for Vista:

The Xbox 360 controller control (directional) pad doesn't work well if you plan on using it. The plastic molding of the xbox360 restricts the digital pad from pressing all the way down. In other words not as responsive. There are methods in fixing the directional pad problem but that's a whole other project/mod/topic.
 
This one still needs help :3 Dawn has told me all suggestions given were good, but still not working. :/ Anymore would be greatly wanted.
 
The PS2 controler with the radio shack usb adapter is the best bang for the buck.
