I have the older Act Labs "space gun" style light guns and I didn't need anything besides the gun/box. Just plug the monitor cable into the gun box and the gun box' vga into your videocard, as well as the usb cable into the pc. I have a bit of an issue w/resolutions over 640x480 w/my avga, but for all my light gun games, the gun work fine.
