Connect xbox 360 Windows 8 controller

I'm trying to connect my xbox 360 controller to my Windows 8.1 by the power cord.  I downloaded the required driver ( https://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-ca/d/xbox-360-controller-for-windows ) and the controller is recognized under devices [A], but it is not recognized as a controller under devices and printers [B] or he appear in joy.cpl or work in games.

A                                                                     B

Things I've tried so far:

  1. different (if working) USB port
  2. different (if working) controller
  3. different (if working) cables
  4. new batteries
  5. just turn on or off
  6. Download and reinstall the driver
  7. installed different versions of the driver
  8. different operating systems of the driver installed
  9. driver installed in compatibility mode
  10. https://support.Xbox.com/ro-ro/Xbox-360/accessories/connect-wired-controller-computer

I ran out of things to try.

I appreciate any help, thanks.

  • 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?

  • 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.

    Hi Christian,

    ·        You receive an error message when you try to connect to the Xbox?

    You can try to temporarily disable the security software and third-party firewall on the computer and check if you can access the computer of Xbox. If you are able to access, you can contact the manufacturer of security software and firewall manufacturer to check if you need to change the settings. Subsequently re - activate the firewall and security software after verification.

  • Trying to connect Xbox 360 to Internet using laptop with Windows 7, but am not finding the 'Share' button in the network connections and I don't have the ability to "bridge connections".

    Sorry about the long title, but it pretty much says my problem. I am trying to connect my Xbox 360 to my Windows7 laptop with the ethernet cable. I have a home network that the wireless laptop works out of. When I go into the control panel network connections section, I can't find the 'Sharing' tab that says that every tutorial I can find there should be. Tutorials can say to go to the screen that shows your wireless connections, highlight your home network and the network to your Xbox and then right click and press "bridge connections". I do not have the option for bridge connections. Can anyone help?

    After having connected the laptop and Xbox with an Ethernet cable, you should be able to enable sharing of Internet connection on the wireless network connection:

    1. Make sure that the two network connections are enabled.
    2. Right click on the wireless network connection.
    3. Click on Properties .
    4. Click sharing .
    5. Put a check mark in the check box under Internet connection sharing .
    6. Click OK .

    After you enable ICS, not bridging the connections. Boulder computer Maven
