• Publisher cannot connect XBOX 360 controller wireless receiver PC on Windows 7.

  I can't connect a XBOX 360 controller to my PC with the receiver wireless on Windows 7 (64-bit). I have correctly installed the driver, and the wireless receiver is recognized by the PC. The problem occurs when I try to connect the controller to the receiver, as do not connect or recognize each other. I press the Connect button on the receiver, then the light starts flashing. I then press and hold the connection button on my controller, which makes the quadrants "search for", but they quickly cease, and instead assign a specific quadrant, all quadrants begin to Flash instead, as before. Nothing seems to work, I have tried to unplug all other USB devices and wireless, connecting the receiver to different USB ports and change the batteries. What should I do now?

• XBOX 360 controller does not control

  I try to use my XBOX on my PC wireless controller, it seems to be installed correctly (that is, it is correctly identified in the list of devices [as 'XBOX 360 wireless controller via Play and Charge Kit,' which is how it is connected], identifies correctly connected to the USB port [I moved it a few times to check]).  But it does not work for the 2 games I tried (BioShock 2 and Tomb Raider, both downloaded via Steam).  One of the games (Bio2) even has an option to enable or disable the XBOX controller, but when I try to click on the button 'ON' it will not activate, and 'OFF' option remains on.

• xBox 360 controller does not at all for PC

  I downloaded and installed the Xbox 360 accessories. And installed everything and everything I plug the controller. When he was done, I rebooted my computer and plugged into the controller. He has ALWAYS installed the plug-and-play driver and is the only driver that appears in my device manager. It does not show the HID - controller game or the other. And in the xbox controller tab, it shows the plug-and-play/charge kit driver.

  Now, I completely uninstalled, restarted, and redone it... two times... and at the same time UNIQUE of EACH result. I use a wireless controller - but I'm on the wired USB plug on it, to make wired. -What is the problem?

• Xbox 360 controller not working not not windows 7 (detected in Device Manager, still does not)

  What I have
  Xbox 360 Wireless Controller (with the cable that allows you to connect it to the photo that is wired)

  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.
  I tried to use it TI a game it does not at all.
  The rings on the Xbox 360 controller lights when I plug the controller in my pc (even though Device Manager detects a problem with)
  When I press the button the controller guide, it just keeps blinking as if it must be syc (but it connect through a wire that shouldn't happen)

  I tired using different drivers the same problems, I was installed the drivers off Windows 7 support site exactly the same problem...

  I also tried unplugging all the USB devices on my computer and plug the controller Xbox 360 on USB port which are directly mounted on the mother exactly the same problem.

  Up to now NO solution.
  Please help me because I think I got tired of everything I can

  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.

• Xbox 360 controller to rumble does not and windows triggers

  I recently brought a xbox 360 controller to my pc all the buttons seem to work fine execpt triggers, they work with games like halo 1 havnt tested too many other games tho
  He came with the instillatoin disk but still do not work the triggers that bothers me really because I could have made a controller at half price with style ps2 but I perfer the 360 setup
  so, it would be great if someone can help me solve this problem

  ray_mo_321,
  If the controller works fine on other games (all the buttons and triggers), then you know that he is in communication with your PC correctly.  You must look in the configuration of the controller on the game to make sure it can use a controller and is properly configured for this.

• My Xbox 360 controller is no longer recognized by my computer Windows XP.

  Original title: Xbox 360 wired controller connection problem

  OS: Windows XP SP3

  When I plug the controller into one of the USB ports on my computer, I don't get the usual noise of (lowbeep-highbeep) USB connection, but instead, I get 3 low beeps in quick succession. I tried the front ports as well as each of the rear ports.

  The thin controller in the XBOX 360 and no other USB device works problems of connection. Tested with my iPod, phone, and the mouse. So I'm guessing that excludes a supply problem.

  When I uninstall Manager devices (section Xbox 360) devices, then plug it in again, I have same 3 beeps and a bubble telling me that a problem has occurred to install my new hardware, etc.

  After this first bubble of 'problem' I get no warning at any time after that I plug, just 3 beeps and a non-working controller.

  In addition, in Device Manager, I get this code:
  The driver for this device is may be corrupted, or your system may be low on memory or other resources. (Code 3)

  I solved the problem.

  > Device Manager
  > Xbox 360 Controller for Windows
  > Properties
  > Update driver
  > Can't connect to windows update
  > Install from a list or specific location
  > Don't search, I will choose the driver to install

• Wireless Xbox 360 Controller for Windows all of a sudden not connect into any USB port

  Original title: Wireless Xbox 360 Controller for Windows issue.

  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.
