The ymptom often was described in according threads over the last years. Me too never was able to get joysticks recognized under XP. To be more precise, the game even did not run for me under XP.
As a matter of sad fact, this piece of code is old, very old.
You may want to consider to give Steel Beasts Pro a try, if you can afford it. It's lightyears ahead of M1TP2, in all regards.
