Ps3 Controller on BSNES?

I'm running windows 7 and just installed bsnes. Its been a long time since I've used rom's, was a big fan years ago and was feeling nostalgic.
Is it possible to use my ps3 controller for BSNES, or any other emulator? I plugged it in and it downloaded drivers, but no response from emulator.
Thanks for responses!
