  If this is the wireless controller, you need the adapter wireless to your PC.  If this is a wired remote, you just plug it in and Vista will recognize.  You don't need drivers otherwise.

  You can find the adapter wireless on Amazon here.

  I bought an XBOX 360 Wireless Controller to my PC which is Vista 32. It worked at first and now it does not work... There is a lot of ppl with this problem with no will... Please help?

  cuzandlisa,
  I have not had this problem myself.  But you might want to look at the troubleshooting on the Xbox site.
  This page is especially for the Xbox to the PC controllers:
  http://support.Xbox.com/support/en/us/NXE/hardware/accessories/accessoriesforPC/ControllerforWindowsList.aspx

  Hope that gives the info you need.  FYI: My first thought would be to uninstall\reinstall the driver.  Also make sure that your PC is up to date with updates.

  Windows 7 was not my idea, but it still rocks! Soli Deo Gloria!

• Problems connecting Xbox 360 to computer vista laptop via ethernet connection to the network local (the laptop is connected via wifi)

  I spent a few hours trying to solve this problem, and I've been to countless forums.  They all told me to go into "Manage network connections" and right-click-properties on my connection Wi - fi.  Then they speak by clicking on the tab sharing... which I did not.  I don't know how to share my connection to the WiFi with my xbox 360.  It is supposed to be easy, but I can't realize what is designed as "highly probable."  I have a laptop Sony Vaio VGN-FW390 and Vista Home Premium. Maybe I have to set up a connection to an access point, or do a sort of thing ICS... I do not know.  I am incredibly annoyed by this, and I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

  Messier,
  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

  Try this and see if it works for you, it has worked for some users.
  With no cable connected between the computer and the xbox, go to control panel, network and sharing Center. You should see a "Local Area Connection", which will show disabled at this stage, and your "wireless network connection", which should show connected. Connect the ethernet cable to your laptop and the back of the xbox. Select the 'connection to the Local network. After that it is well connected, disable your 'Wireless Network Connection'. Once disabled, right click and click Properties. Go to the Advanced tab and check "allow other users of the network to connect through this computer's internet connection". Once this is done, your wireless internet connection should say shared next to the State of the connection.
  Turn on your wireless connection. Then, right click to 'connect to the Local network' and click on repair. Allow the end. test the connection on your xbox.

  Let us know how that works for you.
  Thank you

• How < I > completely < /i > reinstall a wired controller Xbox 360 on a Windows PC?

  I have a wired Xbox 360 controller, which I use on my PC and my laptop... Who is having trouble on the PC when the Vibration is enabled in games. (Among other problems)

  I read the other post, where the answer is that the bus power supply and motherboard were not powerful enough and is that which is at the origin of the problems, now I'm not saying I wouldn't totally rule this possibility, but I'm pretty confident that my PC must be capable of this (especially if my cell phone).

  I think my problem is to do the installation, because there was a problem during the installation on the PC...

  So that the Xbox 360 controller installed its drivers and what - not the first time I plugged on my PC, my friend offline security "do not pull the Xbox off the shelf" section of wire and an error, but the installation is complete. The controller has the same way as it does on the laptop, for example, the green ring just keeps blinking while on the laptop, he moved to the "Player 1" quarter. However, the feature (buttons and sticks) works well in games, crashing less vibrations.

  To be honest, I don't really care about the vibration and have just disabled in the game options, but I recently bought a game where I can not disable the vibration and so I can not use my controller with it. (sad face). That said, it would be nice to stop the flashing green light several times.

  I tried through Add/Remove programs but do not understand how completely remove everything if I do a fresh install.

  I don't know if there are any software is installed, or elements of the registry or drivers. But I need to remove what it installed so I can reinstall it without error.

  My title should have been no doubt: "How to completely uninstall a wired Xbox 360 controller on a Windows PC" since it is the part of the resettlement of which I have a problem with.

  Can someone help me?

  Thank you! (happy face with slightly concerned Front)

• Receiver for wireless controller Xbox 360 to PC does not

  I've had my Xbox 360 controller for at least a year now and so far it has been working perfectly. But yesterday, I decided to visit my brother and took my Xbox controller and the receiver with me. I put them in a bag with a controller leads and additional third-party, got in a car to my brother's House. When I got there, we plugged the receiver to the PC, but the receiver does not light. In fact, the computer does even not recognize that a new device has been connected. The next day, I plugged it to my computer for the first time after leaving the House of my brother and it did not work this time either.

  Here is what I tried:

  • I tried all the USB ports available and may conclude that they have nothing to do with the problem. All ports operate as it should.
  • I tried on a total of 3 computers, and none of them recognize be plugged.
  • I uninstalled and reinstalled programs Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories nothing helps.

  In addition, my computer does not recognize an unidentified device, but I don't think that it has nothing to do with the problem at hand. I say this because, in an attempt to solve this problem, I thought it was the cause of it and followed guides to fix. None of them worked, but I did one discovered that when I uninstalled the driver and rebooted the computer: at the time of the restart, I didn't have the receiver plugged, but he always found an unidentified aircraft. This leads me to believe that the unidentified device is not the receiver, but something else entirely (I don't know what this could be good). However, I'm not a genius when it comes to computers, so I could be wrong.

  As three different computers don't recognize even not be plugged in, I suspect the receiver itself may have been damaged when I put the bag with the controllers and the receiver down in the car and refused to work because of this. However, before you start investing money on two new controllers/receivers/alternatives, I want to ask if there are solutions to the problem.

  Hi and thanks for the answer.

  However, additional speculation in recent days, I managed to find the problem. I peeked inside the receiver and discovered that, as I expected, some had been damaged which prevents operation of the receiver. Since then, I made some adjustments and got the spare parts and the receiver and the controller now working again.

  Nevertheless, thank you for help. In the event of more problems with the controller, I'll be sure to have a look at these links.

• Windows Media Center extender on my XBOX works initially, but not after reboot of my XBOX. Error: Failed to connect to the Xbox 360 could not connect to the windows Media Center computer.

  It's VERY odd and very annoying!

  I set up my laptop next to my Xbox 360 with an Ethernet cable directly connecting the laptop to the XBOX, and the laptop is on our wireless network. The XBOX has access to the internet (shared through the laptop), and when I test the PC connection and the connection XBOX Live sound fine to all.

  So I'll try to set up Windows Media Center, it works great! I "Add Extender", put the code to 8 digits. It passes through the installation, all works, no problems and WMC opens on the XBOX, I can go into my library, watch movies etc... works great!

  However! As soon as I turn my XBOX off and back on, it will fail to connect to the WMC.

  He says his 'find Windows Media Center PC' which seems to work fine, it goes to the ' Windows Media Center loading screen "contact...". ", and after about 10 seconds, I get an error"failed to connect the Xbox 360 could not connect to windows Media Center PC. Make sure that the PC is turned on and connected to the network.

  I tried to configure the Extender repeatedly, whenever it works fine until I restart the XBOX... :/ - and its strange cause I still the internet connection (shared through the laptop) after turning on the XBOX, its really JUST Media Center which is screwing around.

  She continues to keep trying to connect then repeatedly fails.

  If I wanted to, I could re-configuration the WMC Extender EVERY TIME turn off the Xbox, which works the first time without fault, but that's all just stupid.

  I can't really understand what is happening here... any help would be appreciated.

• Unable to get controller Xbox 360 on Run

  Basically, this does not work, and I don't know why. Here are the basics:

  With the rechargeable pack wireless controller

  Windows 8

  Dell Inspiron with 6 GB of RAM and dual core 2.5 GHZ

  Program that runs in Windows 7 compatibility mode

  The controller can be found in devices and printers as "Wireless controller for Xbox 360 with plug-and-play charge kit", but it is not detected by Micro Sofy Xbox 360 accessories. Circle button on the controller has 4 lights flashing instead of one as usual.

  I tried several controllers, and both have the same problem. On one, however, they illuminate the room and charges are red and the other green.

  I tried to reinstall the program.

  Any idea? Don't want to hit twenty clam down at least for a PC controller.

• Controller XBOX 360, used for mice

  OK... I just bought the game of the year Elderscrolls oblivion eddition and I bought a XBOX 360 controller to use considering how it is compatible with windows 7... Everything works great with one exception. The right analog stick on the controller is supposed to control the movements of camera but it does nothing, so I have to resort using the mouse which can be quite the pain. How can I set the analog stick right to act like the mouse to control the camera? Its very important and any help will be greatly appreciated.

  I think he was looking for the Oblivion controller settings.

  Try this site and scroll down to Game Pad feature

  Good luck!

• Wireless network properties, sharing tab appears not-trying to share my connection with my Xbox 360

  I'm trying to follow a few guilds to help me get my xbox 360 connected to xbox live via my pc, I prefer to do it this way, it's because I don't have enough money to pay for xbox live and get the accessory wireless, also I do not have enough long Ethernet cable.

  All guilds tell me that I need to click with the right button on the WiFi settings and click on properties in the network connections, I'm here to see sharing as a TAB

  But all I see is the networking.

  How can I activate the sharing tab? or why he isn't here.

  Edited: The properties of the wired connection has it, but not a wireless.

  Chrisnaga,

  There is not a whole lot more that we can do for you here because it is related to the Xbox. I would recommend to post your question in the Xbox community found here:
