Xbox 360 gamepad does not work on PC, TRIED EVERYTHING.

As the title says, I literally went to every length next to the purchase of a new controller for that to work, I tried for about a month now. I have tried every thing simple that everyone suggested on the forums and here as well. Simply, he doesn't get the drivers. I downloaded them, still are not. He knows it's a joystick, but won't actually run it needs drivers, but they NEVER WORK. I've tried EVERYTHING. It's so hard to play with only one controller.

Hi Erik,

Please contact Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are not able to use the joystick on the computer.

Sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused.

This could be caused due to the following reasons:

Installing the driver several blocking drivers.

User profile problem.

  • Xbox 360 Driver does not

    I have a gamepad XBOX 360 Madcatz.  It worked fine with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit, but since I updated to Windfows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit, it has serious problems.

    A summary of the questions is as follows:

    The buttons are always involved, A is X, RS is start, (etc.) and the Joysticks roll wildly when I start calibration, out of control.

    I've tried every Driver Microsoft I can find and even the XBCD drivers, who sometimes make the pad that is undetectable by most of the games and even my PC...

    Because Windows doesn't let me at least change the buttons ios (for instance the switch button 2 x instead of B) it in any way to solve this problem?

    I found the problem: it is not the controller, it's just the Ubisoft games for most...  Especially with Splinter Cell: Conviction.  Seems they have worse support of controllers, as well online does not work.

    Thanks for the reply and take time out of your day, but the Comptroller works very well: Ubisoft do lol.

  • 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.

  • The firefox search bar does not work and when trying to manage search firefox engine crashes and I have to force to leave.

    My search bar does not work. I can enter text and the work of AutoFill, but when I hit enter or click the magnifying glass, nothing happens. (The address bar works). I can't change the search engine of google for other engines by default, but they are looking for either. When I open "Manage search engines" menu opens and I can make changes, but then he won't and I leave firefox to get the strength to normal navigation. It drives me crazy, please help! I tried to restart the search engine, my computer, changed such parameters suggested by other pages, but nothing helped. (Safari search bar works, but I don't use Safari, so I would really like to understand how to solve this problem).

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    Is two weeks.

    I had this same problem. Couldn't Google to search in weeks bar. Drove me crazy.

    Does what you has proposed and made a new profile, but simply copied to a file or folder at a time in the new profile in the Finder and started the profile to test to see if it worked or not for Google.

    It came down to formhistory.sqlite. The second I put that in Trial, the Google bar stopped working. Found out it just saves your form history and past Google searches, so I'm ok with starting over on that. I'll just have to enter my address one more time on the next form I fill out.
    

    I tried just compensation history form and search in Firefox, but that does not solve, so I went ahead and made another new profile and replaced the formhistory.sqlite from this profile file my trial period. It worked, then I did the same thing with 'default '.

    Problem. Solved.

  • My router Linksys BEFSR41 (model) 4.2 (version) does not work after I tried

    to update to firmware Ver.2.00.4 Build 5. The power still works, but I can't connect to internet with it more. I pressed reset to 30 seconds and disconnected the power for 5 seconds and restarted my PC and it still does not work. Someone knows how to fix this?

    It won't even show the IP of the gateway by default more when I run the ipconfig command. I can't ping it.

    What IP address you get on your computer?

    Connect the modem to the Internet port and the computer and port Ethernet 1 of the router.

    Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and check the IP address of your computer.

    If you get a valid IP address as 192.168.1.xxx then try to ping the 192.168.1.1 IP address.

    If you get the IP address auto-configuration as 169.254.x.x then assign a static IP address on the computer (192.168.1.10 subnet - 255.255.255.0, gateway - 192.168.1.1) and then try to ping the router.

    If you get answers from the router then try to open the router configuration page.
