Controller input problems

[ArcherSlamBam]

Every time I start up a game using the emulator, I get led to the "Press Start" screen. I hit the button that is associated with the start button, and I get nothing. Please, help.

Edit: I went into the control configurations, and am fully unable to change any of the controls to what I want them to be.

Make sure it flashes red when you click the start key. Make sure the controller was plugged in before dolphin started. Select it in the dropdown.

Yeah, except I use a keyboard for the controller. Should have been more clear, my bad.
