The PlugInLCD is what your after and it's part of the GameEx install. It supports both the LEDWiz and PacDrive. When you install GameEx you select Start->Programs->GameEx->Plugin Manager to enable the plugin and configure it.

It depends on how you want to do things I guess, since the LEDWiz support PMW which means it can light buttons using different colors when using it with RGB LED modules that plug in underneath a button. You need the Electric Ice buttons to go with them so to diffuse the color properly.

The PacDrive on the other hand only supports mono LED's (on and off) but you can still light buttons to show which ones are used, but you can't light buttons to the colors of the real CP's. They both support LWAX format which is an LED animation format that allows you to light buttons in complex animation sequences.

So I guess what you want to do depends on your budget and needs.

You really need the hardware to play with the LED animations because you actually need to assign your LED's to the buttons and replicate your CP layout in the animation editor. So unfortunately you will have to rig up your hardware first.
