Joystick issues with windows XP (Gameport - USB)

I have a very old joystick, Microsoft Siedwinder Force Feedback Pro, and just upgraded my computers hardware, but i ran into a problem. It doesn't come with a gameport connection.  However, I purchased a gameport to USB connector, but windows xp can't detect my joystick when i plug it in the USB, it says USB Adaptor (In the game controllers screen!) instead of my joystick, and I can't add any joysticks because it says I dont have a gameport...
Please help me with this issue!

i will NOT buy any extra hardware... I payd lots of money to get this USB adaptor, and I want it to work!
Yeah and I want a million bucks but that isn't going to come true either...take the advice from Callandor. T
