Multiplayer problems

[SuperGoldenMarioEye64]

I have a wired XBOX 360 controller and a USB N64 controller. PJ64 2.3.2.202 will recognize either one, but not both. I can play single player with either, no problems. If I'm doing something wrong please tell me what. I open PJ64, and then plug both into any two USB ports on my windows laptop. I've even tried switching this order. I also tried downloading the plugin that might fix it, but PJ64 doesn't recognize it. (Ironic isn't it: that PJ64 won't recognize the patch that could help it recognize controllers) If it is a problem with my computer recognizing multiple inputs, how do I fix that? If it's a problem with PJ64, is there a patch, or is someone working on it? Or is it that the controllers are different kinds? I would prefer to not have to download anything if I don't need to, but if it's the only way. Or do I need to download a different emulator?

How is it not working? Does it say there is no second controller plugged in? Does it just not take any inputs? Can you not even configure it?

Project 64 does not seem to recognize a second controller, it will not even let me configure it. It will not recognize the inputs from a second controller, even when I switch their places. It does not say if there is or isn't a second controller plugged in. Is there any solution, what could I be doing wrong? Thank you for the help,

Also if it helps the XBOX 360 controller is a Madcatz brand, and the N64 style controller is a DragonRise.
And yes, I'm an American.

Thank you for the help, I figured it out. I plugged in both controllers before even starting my computer.
