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.

Can wher I gt the driver for the controller Xbox 360 work on vista
need help finding the driver to operate the joystick
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.

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.

BOUGHT NEW COMPUTER WINDOWS 10, CHANGED ITUNES MEDIA LOCATION FOR EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE. THE MUSIC DOES NOT APPEAR ON ITUNES.
Changing the iTunes media folder location setting affects only where new additions to your library will be stored. To use a disk external drive to store your library complete (and assuming that you have access to the original data of the library on an old computer) you must copy the iTunes folder, by default in C:\Users\username\Music, on the external drive - structure library and its records should be like this:
The hold button SHIFT DOWN when you start iTunes and when you see this message:
Click choose a library... then find and select the iTunes Library.itl in iTunes on your external drive folder.
For more information, see user turingtest2 on make a library of portable split. You must also acquire a 2nd external drive and allows create and maintain a backup your library.

Microsoft Update for hp LaserJet 3015 PCL 5 driver does not install in Windows 7
I use Windows 7 update.
Microsoft Update for hp LaserJet 3015 PCL 5 driver does not install. He says 1 optional update is available almost every day, then when I try to install, it does not install and it says that the update is not necessary. Even once when I check updates, it says 1 optional update for the printer is available from Microsoft. And the story continues. I tried to reinstall the optional update, but the same problem persists perenniellyIs this the driver you are looking for?
http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=503519&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=503548&swLang=8&TaskID=135&swEnvOID=4062Looking for HP for the pilot because it is better to get these live drivers from the manufacturer. TaurArian [MVP] 2005-2010 - Update Services
No, these aren't the droids, uh, I mean the drivers he was looking for.
In fact, it's better to get the new drivers from the HP website, you will notice the link you provided that the options only are available for this printer under Windows 7 drivers universal. I regularly have problems with universal drivers and strongly recommend to avoid as much as possible.
I agree with the question of the original poster, which, after more than two years, remains unanswered by Microsoft. It seems that MS has a driver PCL 5 (not universal) updated specific 3015, but it fails to install the Windows Update control panel. I finally gave up on it, right click on the update and selected the option to hide it from view.
Why bother with a solution when I use the button "Sweep-It-under-the-carpet" practice of Microsoft?
