Hi Novus,
My internet went off last night and out of sheer boredom I tried an uninstall reinstall. Totally forgot the installer is a downloader so that didnt help my cause at all.
Anyhow, because I couldn't see your above suggestion I have started again with a fresh install today, internet back on.
Should I add the code you said to add yesterday
# This is a sample joystick configuration. This is intended to work
# primarily under WinXP with a USB analog/digital gamepad. The
# digital aspect of the gamepad happens to present itself to the
# system as a POV hat. This configuration allows either the digital
# or analog stick to be used simultaneously. More importantly, it
# gives us a chance to give examples for all of the various input types
# that UQM can handle.
joystick 0 threshold 10000 # How far to move before it counts; 0-30000

Reinstalling UQM won't, IIRC, do anything to your configuration, and the problem seems to be there, not in the installation. That said, if the stuff I told you to add has disappeared (note that the file may be reordered, but the same lines about the joystick should still be there), you will need to put it back.

Ok m8, im back to where I started now. Joypad works fine right up to the point where I have to select my ship in the Super Melee.
You get a chance to try your joystick.

All right. After doing a clean install of UQM 0.6.2 on a Windows ME box with a joystick (old-skool PC joystick with 2 analogue axes, 2 buttons) installed, the joystick wouldn't work. This turned out to be because it wasn't plugged in (or more, specifically, it wasn't plugged into the game port Windows was using; too many old sound cards).
After fixing that problem, UQM still didn't recognise the joystick at all (just like in your case). Deleting the configuration files (keys.cfg and uqm.cfg) made the menus react to the joystick. Finally, going into the setup menu and going Configure Controls/Player One/Joystick 1 fixed it; now the lower player in melee and the full game player are controlled by the joystick.
You can either try to retrace my steps or simply replace your keys.cfg and uqm.cfg with my keys.cfg and uqm.cfg.
