Hi JamBoard,

It is possible, that you need to install the drivers for the controller.  You can get them from here:

However, if it's not too hot, it could be a real hardware problem.

Thank you!

  • Black wired xbox 360 controller for windows flashes and freezes games

    I installed the xbox 360 accessories 1.2, I plugged my black Xbox 360 wired controller for windows on the computer. I let it install its drivers. The ring of light continues to blink all the time, no matter how many times I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and drivers, it continues to Flash, I even looked for updates for the drivers. When I start a game it also works very well unless I have pull triggers or go at my card or try to pick a lock. (the game is skyrim) It freezes whenever I have try them and I unplug the controller and it thaws and if I plug it back in, it does the same thing again. I tested the controller on a real xbox 360 (works fine), but it doesn't seem to work on my pc. Any help please, but serious answers only.

  • My wired xbox 360 controller stopped working.

    My Xbox 360 wired controller, I bought a few months ago, has stopped working. I have a desktop of windows 7 and a computer laptop windows 8 and everytime I try to plug it into either a green ring appears around the Xbox button and both computers say "USB device not recognized" I installed the drivers on the two computers from the disk included and check the updates of my office. I should also mention this controller is slightly used and did not much physical abuse at all. How should I try to fix this?

  • I can't use the Xbox 360 controller for condemned Criminal Origins

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    Ideas:

    • I can't using a wired Xbox 360 controller as a joystick for the origins of felons game.
    • I looked online for a solution and close using joy to key. I could map each button and it was totally functional, but I was still unable to turn or to consider, if I could walk because I had mapped the left analog stick for market controls. I tried to change the settings for the joystick in the game, but they are not what I noticed at all.
    • the game recognize at least some controller, when the mapping in the keyboard settings, it recognizes the buttons, but not the triggers or the analog sticks.
    • I tried to update my drivers, I tried different usbs and always made sure that it was connected, all of the simple things.
    • I really want to play this game, and I'll be really disappointed if I have to use the keyboard and the mouse to do it, I'm not comfortable at all to aid in a fps game.

    Thanks for your help!

    but in fact I ended up understanding.

    apparently my controller was defaulting to an old driver or the wrong driver or something, so the game incorrectly recognizes it. at least partially wrong.

    the old, updated, deleted totally worked! for the most part, had yet to use joy to key to map triggers, and the d - pad is recognized as a button, instead of four separate.

    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.

    Hi, I bought this back in 2008 and it has been flawless since today... I tried to use it and the controller is unable to connect to the receiver.

    There is no light on the receiver, even when I plug it into a different USB port there is still nothing... I even tried another computer. I assume the receiver is nakered?. Can anyone shed some light on this?

    If the receiver is so broken, can I buy this receiver on its own and that it will be compatible with my wireless controller Xbox 360 instead of having to buy another expensive controller...

    Thank you very much.
