• Publisher cannot connect XBOX 360 controller wireless receiver PC on Windows 7.

  I can't connect a XBOX 360 controller to my PC with the receiver wireless on Windows 7 (64-bit). I have correctly installed the driver, and the wireless receiver is recognized by the PC. The problem occurs when I try to connect the controller to the receiver, as do not connect or recognize each other. I press the Connect button on the receiver, then the light starts flashing. I then press and hold the connection button on my controller, which makes the quadrants "search for", but they quickly cease, and instead assign a specific quadrant, all quadrants begin to Flash instead, as before. Nothing seems to work, I have tried to unplug all other USB devices and wireless, connecting the receiver to different USB ports and change the batteries. What should I do now?

• Can I play Xbox 360 games on my Windows Vista laptop?

  From: Scott

  I just got a new laptop because my old is dead and it is running vista and it has a socket to plug a x box 360 control in and theres all this hype x box 360 and vista together so I was wondering, that would happen if I stick a 360 game disc in the computer. so, what would I be able to play this match as if it were a x box 360 with a computer instead of a TV screen or it would destroy my laptop I need to know. I mean I'd be pised if I went and spent the money on a 360 and then discovered that I could have just played on my computer.

  To put it simply, can I play a box x / x box 360 game on my laptop.

  From: Dale M. White

  Simple answer No

  Longer answer, no. Xbox306 games are written for PowerPC, which if I remember correctly a RISC based chips and Intels\AMDs are CISC based chips.

  The excitement of Xbox360 and Vista, was more in the sense to implement the sharing of multimedia files and at some point, but always on paper. Set up the games between a PC and a Player X 360, through their Xbox live, to talk to inluce to link your xbox live with the X 360 has.

  Hello.

  Don't bother to go on the site, all the software you need is included in Windows Vista/7.  Just open Media Center and go to add Extender and follow the steps on the screen.

• Cannot complete the update of security for Windows Vista (KB2961072)

  I have windows vista and cannot complete the update security update for Windows Vista (KB2961072) KB2961072.  I also ran system update readiness tool. No luck.   Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  I had a very very long list of updates from several years ago, now I see only about 60.  OS says I have SP2 yet, but it does not look like it.  What happened to the hundreds of updates?  I have updates of the .net Framework and part of last week.

• Cannot connect to internet after auto update under Vista.

  Original title: System shows the connection, but cannot connect

  After an automatic update in Vista in mid-August I can no longer connect to the internet.  My system tray shows that I am connected but I can't.  I'm on a DSL wireless connection with a desktop computer (one does not) and a laptop with XP that always works very well.  I re - configure the modem, uninstalled, and reinstalled the wireless card, has run an anti-virus in safemode, uninstalled the Qwest connection network and re-installed AND uninstalled the update to Vista.  I even tried the system restore to an earlier time.  Nothing.  Internet diagnosis says that it cannot solve the problem.  I have read other forums on the UN-checing proxy settings but mine have not been verified.  I re-set my settings IE8 by default.  Uninstall protection against viruses...

• Windows Vista Home Premium cannot find Xbox 360 as extender

  This may be long but im giving information as possible.

  I'm good with the computer. My Vista Home Premium computer cannot find my xbox 360 as an Extender. When I use the WIndows media player 11 and share, he sees my xbox very well. Zune software, same thing. My xbox 360 is here no problem on my network in "My Network Places".

  In Media Center, once I typed the 8 digit number it is said that he can not find the Extender. I did the following:

  Reset my router
  Reformat my computer
  Reset my xbox 360
  Double checked I got the right 8-digit number in media center
  Disabled windows firewall
  Went to the tab exceptions and compatible: WIndows Media Center, Media Center Extender, eshell.exe, discovery network
  went to the management of the computer and turned on UPnP device host (changed the startup type to automatic and restarted my computer)
  Permit "filter multicast" in my router settings
  UPnp enabled in my router settings
  Upgrade Vista (with SP1 as well)
  Re-installed the drivers for my wireless card
  Connected to the Xbox 360 WIRED to my router

  Heres the funny thing, I have a Sony laptop vaio with Windows Media Center Edition 2005 on the same network that sees my xbox all the time. Its actually connected through a microsoft extension program (XboxMCE05Lite - enu.exe) basically it works fine.

  One funny thing that may help with my vista (Home premium) Windows Remote Assistant machine fails or the other.

  Any ideas? If this can help, too, this computer is built on the ground.  Sense, this isn't a HP, Dell, Sony, etc.

  Network equipment:
  Router Linksys WRT54G
  Map of Netgear WG311v3 54 Mbps Wireless

  works fine with my other laptop. So I guess that the problem must be my wireless card. I guess that's a PCI card it would have nothing to do with the problem. I'm going tomorrow to buy a NIC. USB Im not in a race simply because my internet works very well without getting a new network card. I am just puzzled and would like to get this to work because I hate running through computer problems and in abeyance. I'll get one tomorrow and let you know the guy.

• The headset audio USB deforms after initially connect xbox 360 controller for windows

  Hello world.

  It seems that many people (including me, now) start meeting audio distortion after they plug a Xbox 360 controller for windows on their computer for the first time. I have a headset Audio USB of Dynex Mono, and whenever I try to use the microphone, the sound comes out distorted. Also, when I try to use the earphone to listen to whatever it is that the audio is also flawed.

  Did anyone here know what I can do, so I can get the controller and the helmet the two working together in a computer? The headset works fine in another computer.

  I have Windows XP Home SP3.

  The Xbox controller draw right on the edge for a USB port, putting pressure on all of the USB bus, especially if there are other USB devices. If you get an external USB powered hub to add to your system and plug the controller, you will solve your problem.

  I had the same problem with my Creative Labs USB sound card and the Xbox controller at the same time. I picked up a Zonet similar to this (different brand):

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817182168

  I plug my controller, keyboard, and mouse dongle in the hub and plug my sound card directly into one of the ports on the back of the PC. Problem solved! I got no sound since problem.
