• Mobile gamepad XBOX 360 not recognized when connected to a Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium computer USB ports

  Very well - so a few days ago (Saturday ~ 2) (25. 2012) I connected to my XBOX 360 (Wired) controller on my Toshiba Satellite L655 computer laptop with Windows 7 ~ Home Premium 64-Bit. To my surprise, a Notification bubble popped up from the taskbar, saying that the "unrecognized USB device. It has malfunctioned. "

  Naturally, I took, waited a few seconds, and then reconnect the USB key. The same message has popped up. Now, I was angry. Repeatedly, I took and reconnected it all a few seconds until that FINALLY the 4 green lights around the button Guide everything illuminated and then back except the one on the upper left, which was the way it should have been.
  I went to the control panel and clicked on the 360 controller to see if he had any input. Nope.
  I pulled out once more, has waited a while and plugged in. No, lucky. The same thing happened again. The Notification bubble came, all 4 green lights on and then all four of them died. I don't know what happened.
  When I plugged the controller to the laptop the FIRST FULL TIME, he installed all necessary drivers in less than a minute and I was on my way. Every time after that, I have taken the controller into the USB Port and began to play. Now all the time, that is to say that it cannot recognize the controller?
  I've tried everything, even a system restore. Nothing did. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers for a few minutes, there was an entry of the controller, then he went just blank.
  I need this controller in order to play my racing games, seeing the keyboard control just aren't the best. I don't know what the problem is, but I wish I had a solution A.S.A.P. Please, Microsoft, please. Help me!
                                                                                                                          
  
  
  
  

  I had the same problem, cannot find a solution that worked everywhere, including Microsoft support forums.

  About to give up, I remembered the old cure NDA, shaped, "why not?"  I've tried everything else. "So I've disconnected everything on the gamepad, blew in every connection and reconnected everything, by ensuring that the connections were tight.

  It has worked perfectly since then.

• gamepad Xbox 360 are not not in Device Manager

  Hello. I've been using a controller wired xbox 360 on my laptop with windows vista 32 bit 2 days ago. It worked fine, but then I was playing and all of a sudden it disconnected and my computer no longer recognizes. Sometimes it works after that I restarted my computer, sometimes it won't. I tried many things, as the driver download, remove it and install again in compatibility mode with Windows Service Pack 2, update driver chipset MB, etc. The strangest thing is that when I open the Device Manager, it is supposed to display something called Microsoft Common Controller or Xbox 360 controller, but it is not. It also does not appear when I run joy.cpl. The controller works, so it is not defective. I think it has something to do with the pilot. I'll appreciate any help I can get.

• Gamepad Xbox 360 plugged into USB with "Play and Charge Kit" does not work

  Hello, I have Windows 7 as OS, and I'm having some problems with my Xbox 360 controllers. When I bought the game and load to my xbox 360 controller kit, I heard that it was possible to connect to you pc to play with games for windows live. So, I started looking for drivers, and I found them in the official site of microsoft hardware. I installed it, and then I restarted my PC, I plugged it into the USB port, WIndows recognizes the material. I thought it was very good. But, even if the hadrware has been noted, it doest work. Then I discovered that 'Xbox 360 accessories 1.2' does ' t detects hardware, and it is not recognized as a game, but as a generic Hadrware material.  at this point I have gived up! I surfed the net, trying to find somethig or somemone can help me, but it was useless. Now, I hope that you will be able to solve my problem!

  PS: I already tried to change the controller, to change USB port, to change the cable, to uninstall and repeat the installation of the driver...

  I hope that I was clear and sorry for my bad English!

  Hello TheRick.

  Unfortunately, this won't work.  The Play and Charge kit connects only up to the actual battery.  Still, the controller connects more wireless.

  You would need a wired Xbox 360 controller or Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming receiver that connects to your wireless controller existing.

• Gamepad Xbox 360 as seen in "Device Manager", but not recognized as "Game controller" and will not be installed all the drivers

  My problem is very similar to the one raised here:

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_other-gaming/Xbox-360-controller-seen-in-Device-Manager-but-not/fcf52151-604e-4BF3-BF55-2fa4930bc415
  However, the OP in this question unfortunately never had answer to his question.
  When I plug my Xbox 360 controller on my laptop, my computer recognizes it as a device, but does not recognize it as a game controller. Instead, my device is listed under a category called "Other devices", and the drivers are not installed (he gets the little warning sign yellow after the icon).
  I tried to install the correct 'Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories' (http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/d/xbox-360-controller-for-windows (Windows 7 64-bit)) and direct the machine to install its drivers from there, but nothing helps.
  I've tried right-clicking on the device, by clicking 'Uninstall', out in him plugging, uninstalling and reinstalling Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories, restarted my computer and each unique combination of these things.
  I tried to talk to an Ambassador of Microsoft, who told me to update the driver and manually make a 'human interaction device', but unfortunately it did not work.
  I called Support of Windows games, who gave me information from these links:
  support.Microsoft.com/kb/908888
  support.Microsoft.com/kb/906347
  Outside of download the drivers manually in the form of 'Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories' (which I already have), I wasn't able to try all of the hotfixes listed in the guides, because my camera is not listed as a joypad or human interface device. It is simply listed as "Xbox 360 Joypad" and it is listed under the heading "other devices."
  It seems that there is just something wrong with my USB and it's just is not installing drivers properly, but this isn't the case. I plugged many other devices, including an iPod, a mouse and an external HARD drive, which all had their drivers properly installed and works great.
  I also know that it is not a problem with the xbox controller, that I plugged into another laptop (also Windows 7 64-bit), as well as pilots very well on the other laptop.
  I'm really puzzled by this situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated, but please do not repeat the information or links I listed here, or who was in the last question which I quoted above. Thank you for your help.

  UPDATE: I finally got to work. Everything is beautifully detailed in this video from Youtube:

  Here's what you do:
  1. plug your device and go to Device Manager
  2 right click on everything that your computer recognizes your device as (for me, it was listed under 'Other devices' and had a yellow warning sign on this subject) and click on "Uninstall".
  3. disconnect your device
  4. If you have not already done so, download and install the appropriate for your device 'Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories' program
  5. plug your device back on and go back to Device Manager
  6 right-click on everything that your computer recognizes your device as (for me, it was listed under 'Other devices' and had a yellow warning sign on this subject), but this time click on "update driver software".

• Gamepad Xbox One does not connect

  I don't really know what to do with this problem.

  The other day I decided I would start using my Xbox controller instead of the 360 one to play on the PC, because he feels a lot better. I have downloaded the drivers, plugged my micro-USB cable and everything worked fine. When I sat down to play again the next day, all of a sudden, it wouldn't connect. I've tried everything I can think of since then to operate; I uninstalled and re downloaded drivers about 5 or 6 times, I bought a new cable (make sure it's a cable of data, not only for the charge transfer), I reconnected my controller to my Xbox and then plugged back on the PC and nothing. The controller vibrates and refuses to record on the PC.

  I really have no idea what what done somehow or what to do about this, especially because it worked once then decided that he did not want to work more.

  After some fiddling with more that I managed to refine the question - it turns out that the front USB ports on my PC is dead, at least for the data transfer. I finally plugged my controller via a rear USB port and it works fine.

  Thanks for the help anyway Sayan_Ghosh.

• Gamepad Xbox 360 for Windows pc freezing when the vibration is enabled

  Anyone know a fix for this, whenever I have the vibration turned on for any game using the controller Xbox 360 for Windows (by cable), it freezes the game and I can't get my PC to respond again by disconnecting the controller.

  This occurs if the game supports natively the 360 controller or not.

  Games question until now:

  Dead Space
  Dead Space 2
  LIMBO
  Tomb Raider: Legend

  Deactivation of the vibration in one of these games feature solves the problem, but does anyone know a solution where I'd be able to use the vibration?

  The problem you are experiencing may be caused by the power of the amount needed when the vibration is enabled. I had the problem on my old PC, that when I used my controller, my sound would play as the speakers had holes in them and that the game would freeze-freeze-start. The Xbox 360 controllers use 500mA, which is over the limit that provides a USB port. With this audio device, a keyboard and a mouse together via a USB port, which is an aspiration constant quite heavy on the USB supply rail.
  I fixed it by getting a small USB 7 port hub which is outwardly the power (this is important) and plug my controller. This way he can draw the entire, there need without slipping down the USB ports attached to the motherboard. Just be sure it's a hub with an external power supply.

• Gamepad Xbox 360 triggers work only not on PC in games?

  So as lame as it is, I tried to play Fifa 07, while my 13 Fifa copy shows. However, when the controller configuration I can't assign the control keys as in the buttons of the game, for example, I can't assign the right trigger to use sprint. Anyone else have similar problems in other games? and if so, is there anything that Microsoft intends to do to activate it? I'll be able to assign to triggers in Fifa 13?

• gamepad Xbox 360 detected but does not work on windows PC 8.1

  I recently got the game pack and usb support, and I tried to connect it to my laptop. I am sure that it is in a USB 2.0 port, and it is detected (depending on the devices and printers) at 90%. However, each guide I find tells me to open 'the game controller settings' in the menu devices and printers and test the device, or open Joy.cpl. There is no option 'game controller settings' for me, and joy.cpl doesn't detect anything. I tried all the drivers I could find and had to restart at least 10 times trying to follow all the guides, but it won't work.

  I also downloaded the software that is supposed to come with the regulator in line, and a guide that I used, I would just download the version of windows 7 and open it in compatibility mode, I did, but that didn't help. He gave me the software for the controller, and I have the small window that shows how the controllers are connected. This window, however, does not detect the controller, saying he has no connection.

  It's very frustrating, and any help is appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hi Benjamin,

  I understand your frustration, but rest assured that I am here to help you with the question.

  The Play and Charge kit connects only up to the actual battery.  The controller connects wireless. You need an Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming receiver that connects to your wireless controller existing.

  Please meet us for more details so that we can help you.
