XBox 360 Wireless Controller For Windows Won't Sync With Receiver
Jun 18, 2012
I have Windows 7 Home Premuim x64 Bit Service Pack 1. I just bought the Xbox 360 wireless controller for windows which comes with a receiver to play on the pc. When I got it I just plugged in the receiver and connected the controller it came with and it worked fine just after using for a while, did it stop connecting to the controller and after that i wouldn't connect anymore so I installed the software that it came with update the driver but still it won't connect then I unistalled the driver and software restarted the computer installed everything again and still I can't get the controller to sync with the receiver. Even tried This but I cant install the different driver because it says driver has already been installed and is up to date:
Right click on Computer
Go to Properties
Click on Device Manager
Right click on the Unidentified Device
Go to Properties
Go to the Drive tab
Click on Update Driver
Browse my computer for driver software
Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
Microsoft Common Controller for Window Class
---Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows Version: 2.1.0.1349 [8/13/2009]
I just bought a Wireless Gaming Receiver and the disc included was broken. The device appears to work, but I don't have a driver for it. It says on the package that it is compatible with Windows 7, but I cannot find a driver download online.
I have used the drivers who you can download ad this link Hotfile.com: One click file hosting: wireless.rar(they are the same of the cd).There is no problem to install the software Xbox360_64Eng.exe, but I don't know how to install the drivers for the receiver, I try to do it manually, but in all the folders of the cd seems there aren't the right drivers.
i tried to install my xbox360 wireless reciever on my windows 7 64 bit quad core desktop went throught the hole device manager update drivers microsoft xbox common control class but the only option there is xbox 360 common control theres no wireless options there went to microsoft and downloaded xbox accessorys 1.2 installed and still the same problem.
I have a official xbox wireless receiver for windows and i cant get it to connect to the controller. I have installed all the drivers from the microsoft website and tried all the guides on the internet, but it still doesnt work.Anyone know any possible solutions? I have tried it on both my computer both running Windows 7 ultimat
I purchased the above for an upcoming game. I purchased 1, thinking that's All I needed, however, I should of ordered 2. When I order the second, will it
I have a wireless Xbox 360 controller for Windows that I have been using for a while now. I used it with Vista and then with Windows 7.Everything worked perfectly until few days ago...when I tried to turn the controller on (pressing the middle button), the green lights just started flashing and blinking. The wireless receive had not lights on. I tried unplugging the receiver and plugging it back in.It's so weird since I just played LIMBO few days ago with the controller and now it's not working.
I have installed all proper drivers required to use the controller, but Joy.cpl isn't picking up the device, and I have it hooked up through the USB charger, do I have to do it wirelessly still even though I get pinged that the USB is being used when I plug in the remote through the USB charger? does it only charge when plugged into the computer this way? these are answers I am looking for but I haven't seen anything but a rather rude post by another individual seeking information who was commented on by this rude person, yes I understand not everyone is computer or tech savvy, but learing should be a shared experience.
This is the controller I used for my Xbox before I sold it. It still works, but my Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit doesn't seem to want to be compatible with it.
Driver 2.1.0.1349
I downloaded the latest drivers and installed them, and I plug it in and it says installing device and it installs. It starts charging, but the Center button just keeps blinking, and it is showing up under device manager.
I want to buy an xbox wired controller to play games on pc with the controller. My question is that the controller works as the same like on xbox? Actually, I mean the analog sticks. It has the same sensitivity on pc like on xbox? Because in the keyboard you can push the button or not. With the analog sticks you have more possibility, sensitivity.
Is there a way to setup your computer to connect only to a specific wireless router in your area? I live in a college dorm and there are a lot of wireless connects available so I'm thinking that there might be complications with my computer with all the information in the air.
I'm trying to get my Xbox 360 controller to work on my PC. It's wireless and I'm trying to use the USB charge cable. If there is anyway to make this work so I can use my 360 controller on zsnes.
I have downloaded the software pack and when I plug my wired controller in almost everything works perfectly, BUT whenever I press the right trigger (left trigger too on some games, I've tried this with multiple games) the game just freezes, it won't unfreeze until I unplug the controller. This only happens during gameplay, pressing the RT any time where it won't register doesn't do anything.
I am trying to connect my wired Xbox 360 controller to my Windows 7 computer. However, when I plug it in, Windows literally doesn't even know that it is plugged in. Nothing happens. I've tried plugging it in in several different ports, all with the same result. I also have a Plug'n play controller that I am trying to use, and while Windows recognizes that the Plug'n play system is plugged in, the controller doesn't work. I have downloaded the software from Microsoft, and still it doesn't work.
I got a very funny issue with my xbox 360 controller here... I bought it 3 years ago while im still in college, often used it on my laptop (win xp) and it runs well, no problem.
Last year i bought a new PC with Windows Vista, and still no problem, i played many games with that. The problem exist since i format my PC to Windows 7 ultimate 32
Here's the funny stuff, after few experiment, i found out that "The longer I dont use the controller, the longer i can use it afterward" I guess u will confuse about what im talking... but its true
For example.... I turn on my PC, and i did not plug in the controller for hours, maybe surfing webs or do some stuffs, then when i decided to plug it on to play some games, it actually works but it has a limited time. After some time, it stop working and the green light disappear. Like I turn on the pc without plugging in the controller for 30min, then when i plugged in i can use about 30min (i didnt record it, just for u to understand easily)
When i try to unplug it and plug it on again, the green light on the controller flash once, and my pc said USB Device not recognized, what the heck is this?
I've even tried to restart the PC, windows 7 loaded, i plug in the controller, about few minutes it not working again
I've been searching for solutions for few hours, updating the driver from the microsoft website, XBCD and few emulator, tried it but nothing helps
my controller was working fine until 1 day when i plugged it in the windows didnt recognise it and a message appeared saying usb device not recognised and the error was code 43.i have lost 2 of my joysticks just like this.
Is there a way to get Old Xbox controllers (the better ones imho) to work with windows 7 ? Windows 7 does not seem to be smart enough to understand the XP driver. It will not pick up my controller, even after the drivers appear to install.
which is why i made myself an account to post on this forum.The problem is when i'm plugging my xbox 360 controller on my computer , the lights are flashing and i can't use it.I have downloaded the good drivers on microsoft website. (My controller is wired by the way.)I have downloaded the driver multiple times , uninstalled it , restarted my computer etc.I have tried everything that was on the internet , at this point i don't know what to do anymore and i'm frustrated.In fact , the controller works fine and the driver too , but when i move the controller or take it in my hands , the lights start flashing and it looks like the driver ''disconnect''. have made a video of it where you can see me taking the controller in my hands and the lights flashing , you also hear a noise of ''new material detected'' when it flash because the driver stop working for a second or two.Also , if i move too much with the controller , i get a blue screen of death.All my drivers are up to date , i'm using a program called DriverUpdate and i have the full version of it.
Whenever I plug my 360 controller into my pc its followed by blue screen of death, can anyone help med out? I didn't have this problem a few weeks ago.I changed usb ports, reinstalled the drivers and its still happening
I've used a wireless 360 controller with receiver now flawlessly for ~1 year. Bought a Wired one today, except whenever I plug it in, I get an immediate BSOD! I've taken the usual precautions of uninstalling MotionInJoy (both from control panel AND by deleting the appropriate driver from c:windowssystem32drivers), but it still blows up every time I've gone to the Microsoft site and downloaded the drivers there too. Basically, I install the Accessories part, and that's fine. Then when I plug the controller in, it takes about 3 seconds and then BAM. BSOD. Upon restarting, if I plug it in, it doesn't BSOD, but it sure doesn't work either. Oddly enough, the MotionInJoy driver reappears in the system32/drivers folder occasionally after a BSOD.
I am trying to use an xbox controller to play RAGE on my pc, but even when I select the gamepad for use it does not work. Yet, the xbox controller buttons are displayed for the mouse, eg A instead of E for interaction. I am probably missing something really obvious, but I am not terribly pc literate. What should I do to use the gamepad?
Recently purchased an older wired Xbox 360 controller to play emulated retro games on my netbook. From the research I've done, windows should install the correct drivers when I plug the controller into my USB port, correct? Absolutely nothing happens when I plug the controller into the computer. I'm new to PC so I'm sure I'm making a simple mistake. I've downloaded the Xbox 32Bit controller software from microsoft and still nothing. I see nothing in device manager or anywhere else on my computer. The controller doesn't light up when I plug it in or anything
I've been having an issue with the xbox 360 wired controller since I built my new pc. When I plug it in via usb the device is not recognized by windows and no matter what I try it simply will not work.
Things I have tried: downloaded chipset drivers downloaded Software Downloads: Xbox 360 Controller for Windows tried the whole leaving the computer and all usb devices unplugged and off for a good few hours. ininstalled all the usb controllers and rebooted tried it in all usb ports, 3.0 and 2.0 searching for hours on google tried enabling/disabling usb legacy support in the bios tried running microsoft fixit thing (whatever that is) tried updating the drivers manually through the device manager but windows insists that the device is up to date. tried uninstalling and removing ethernet cable to try and force me to choose drivers. windows is fully updated I even bought a new controller thinking the last one was broken. The controller powers up when you plug it in, you can clearly see the green lights around the guide button flash but then nothing happens.
Put this in here because instead of the gaming forum since it seems to be a system-wide issue since it happens with multiple applications as opposed to just one game.Okay, so this has been a problem I've had with multiple computers for a while so I was wondering if it's a bug with my setups or if it's just how the Xbox 360 controller generally behaves in Windows.For example, in Skyrim, with the 360 controller attached, controls feel slightly delayed and the action isn't smooth at all, at least not compared to playing Skyrim on an actual 360 with the 360 controller. It's mostly evident with the right control stick (don't worry, the actual controller is fine - works perfectly on Xbox 360).To better explain - if I try moving the right analogue stick in a circular motion to look around - the result is that it really jerkily, like in a square, moves right, then down, then left, then up as opposed to actually doing a circular motion, and generally switching from looking from say up to, say, looking right, is a mess.

For some reason keep getting blue screens most of the time it is while I am playing games doesn't matter what game it just does it randomly sometimes I can play for 1 hour or 4 hours or sometimes not even 30 mins. I've updated my video card to the latest version. I've also updated my Direct X. Files are in the attachments. I have a lot of PC games and Also I use a Xbox 360 controller for most games.
