how do I hook up a video game controller to a computer.?

I'm my dad's son whom is typing and asking this question, and i make Game Maker 7 games. i would like to make my game able to be played with two video games' controllers. (and i'd love to play with dad)

I know it is possible because i see it on the control panel, but how do i do so.

I have 2 playstation 2 controllers and an old Sega Genesis one. I would like to play it with a PS3 or XBOX 360 but those are wireless (darn new TECHNOLOGY nowadays)
The computer i'm using is a Vista
(Home prenium and 64 bits, to be extra precise)

Find out how to hook them up to your computer first of all. Then find out how you can apply their settings to your computer so they actually do something when you plug them in. Then apply those settings to Game Maker 7.
