His comment was spot-on.  I don't know what you are talking about, but hotd2 installs pretty easily.  All lightguns on the pc emulate a mouse and hotd2 supports the mouse as input so there isn't any issuses there.

HOTD isn't emulated well so you can pretty much forget that route.  You can try the m2 emulator, but good luck with that one as it's far from complete. 

The pc games work fine assuming you use them with the troubleshooter control panel applet.

Yes!
l use the pc versions of all the House of the dead games, and use the LCD Top gun with the Guncon2 drivers. Do a search for this lightgun and the drivers on this forum for more info.
Cheers , and by the way explain your question a bit better from the start.

If you have the ActLabs guns, there's a utility called The Troubleshooter that allows the use of two guns in games that normally don't support it; it supports the PC versions of HOTD, HOTD2 and HOTD3.  See http://thetroubleshooter.home.mindspring.com/ .

I got the first HOTD at Fry's for about $4.99.  The rest I've seen pretty cheap on ebay.

BTW, I use the Act Labs Guns with "The Troubleshooter" patch.  They work great!

Yes, you can use the GunCon 2 on a PC. Here are 2 links that will have every single bit of info that you will EVER need.

I have TopGuns.  What is nice about them is that they work on PC's, PS2's, and XBOX's.  HOTD3 for XBox is awesome with the TopGuns, and it comes with HOTD2.  You can get it for under $20 (I got mine at GameSpot, New: $19.95).

Huh...whaa...umm...huh? Both links work. There is a 1600 post thread on the TopGuns and multiple others. There are also many threads on using GunCon 2's. Just search around a little (see link #1), and you will find that everything that you have asked has been answered many many times here.

Are the windups what?

Ok, ok, now we are getting somewhere. You still need to add punctuation and capitalization, but I'll be damned if that wasn't close. Also, what you say should probably pertain to something, not just a random sentence such as the one above.
