Not sure about the specifics of your problem, but on the NT CD,  under 
drivers and then, I believe, there is a joystick folder, you should find 
joystick drivers. See also

 http://www.concentric.net/~Dstaines/nt40games/

for info on NT games. 

By the way, I have the AWE32 soundcard. Works fine. Why is everyone who 
posts about the AWE32 installing the NT plug & play drivers (pnpisa)? 
What is that supposed to do for you?
