  • A Xbox controller stopped working with the PC

    I have a windows pc 8. I used my xbox controller for games there a few months. Randomly stopped working. Before when I plugged it in, it vibrated, lit and then it was connected. Now when I plug it does not vibrate, and it does not turn on the controller. He says only: "unrecognized usb device". I went to Device Manager and nothing comes for a controller xbox either. When I used the controller on my pc I have installed all the drivers. Just plugged in, and it worked. I have no idea why it stopped working. I have not installed anything new recently. Any ideas?

    Hi Jaysiff,

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

    1. Have you tried to connect any other USB device to this new computer laptop? If so, was the same result?
    2. Are all the device drivers and updates of Windows updated?

    According to the description of the problem you found error message "unrecognized usb device". The question may arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or damaged or if your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a device USB and Windows. This can also occur if your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt. So, I would suggest trying the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Please try the fixit (s) provided below which will help you solve common problems associated with devices and USB ports.

    If method 1 does not work, try Method 2.

    Method 2:

    Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

    1. Open Device Manager by pressing the Windows key + X and select Device Manager from the list. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
    3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
    5. Plug in the removable USB device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

    Method 3

    If the problem persists, I suggest to update the drivers and follow the steps in the article mentioned below to connect and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

  • Wired controller Xbox does not work... yet.

    I had this problem before and I tried to fix it, he started working out of the blue, but now he's back, and I can't fix it. My wired Xbox controller I bought a few months ago, worked when I plugged it first of all, you have this problem, started working again out of the blue and now has stopped working again. Whenever I have it connect, the controller is powered, but isn't everything, he would light up the 1st quadrant. It flashes four times, with a few seconds of time between each flash, I think he's trying to find a driver, but for some reason some can't. When I look in Device Manager, the controller does not appear.

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit
    I plugged the controller on my Xbox 360 and my other PC, and it worked very well, so it is not the controller.
    I tried to download the driver to the Microsoft website and using the CD of installation, no work.
    I've tried different USB ports.
    I tried to uninstall/reinstall the drivers (and I'm sure they are the right drivers to 100%).
    I tried to uninstall/reinstall the drivers in safe mode.
    I tried to use Windows Update.
    I tried to disable driver signature enforcement.
    I tried Microsoft Fix It.
    I tried to change the registry.
    Nothing works.
    Any help on how to fix this? And how can I prevent this from happening again in the future?

    Thank you for the update.

    Hi Brian,.

    If the controller is working on other computers, then it's a problem with the USB port to which you connect the Xbox to.

    How can I get my xbox 360 controller to work with my computer?... I can't even recognize the hardware? Im running Vista 64 bit on a quad core rig any help would be appreciated... Thank you

    Hello Ghostdogaln.

    How do hang you the controller?  You must either use a * wired * controller, or use a wireless controller with receiver game Xbox 360 for Windows.

    If you use a wireless with a Play and Charge kit controller, it will not work as long as the USB cord only actually plug into the battery for the controller itself.

    This my problem
    I connected the Xbox 360 controller to my pc via the cable, it is detected in Device Manager as 'wireless controller xbox 360 Via play & charge kit.
    In respect of game controller does not appear even when you click advance to selected the device it does not always show upward.

    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.

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.
