    Hello

    I have a Microsoft Surface and would like to try my game controller Xbox 360 Wireless with it that says Microsoft is compatible it seeks here (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/win8/CompatCenter/Home).

    I have a play and a cordon of charge I Plug and results in the Xbox controller picked up like "Controller wireless Xbox 360 via Play & Charge Kit" at devices however I don't seem to be able to use the controller to play all games (3D Rocket Riot and Skiddy the slippery Puzzle are the only ones I've tried so far that mention Xbox controllers support).

    The controller plugged and pressing the Guide (the middle one), the buttons turns green flash just like its looking for something but do not pick up anything.

    So the big question...

    What I am doing wrong?

    I have not tried the controller wireless Xbox 360 on the Surface, but I know that even for general computing, you need a receiver of the controller wireless Xbox 360, not only play & Charge Kit: this device, exactly as his name, cannot charge your controller, and can't do anything else, for example, connect the controller to any other computer , or whatever.

    Hello pookieboy140,

    I suggest that you start with the management of Network Diagnostics on the computer that will help you in error, like why you are not able to connect to the Internet.

    You can refer the link that will give you information about this below:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Network-Diagnostics-event-logs-to-solve-network-problems

    Since you are not able to connect to the Internet, the best way to solve this problem is to contact your service provider.

    Thank you

  • for windows Xbox 360 Wireless Controller

    I tried to find an answer to my question on the wireless controller, I bought today. I searched for more than three hours. Anyway, I am not sure if the controller is connected or not. All by checking the Device Manager, it says that the drive controller works properly. However, I don't see any way of setting properties, the device on my desk and or connection to my games, now, I tried to use the controller for Age of Empires. And nothing happens. I use Win 7 32 bit. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, both the disk, or download it. Nothing seems to work. I also tried to download directions to the controller, but it only downloads the PDF in Chinese. Even though I listed English. I wish we could get answers to such problems without all the hassle. I was told before the purchase of this controller, it would work very well and I could used to play my games on my computer. But it's not working. My next step is to send it back. And go back to using my mouse to play games.

    Usually games that use keyboards to play should support xbox controller, such as the one that you drive a car, fighting, games, etc.

    A good place to start is:

    Download some free or demo games such as Microsoft Fly and try to see if you can set it with your controller.

  • Game controller will not connect with game

    I bought Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator and a LogiTech gamepad Pro years 3D extreme when I had a Windows XP computer, and they work very well together.  I've since upgraded to a Windows 7 computer.  I updated the driver for the joystick, and the operating system recognizes (when I check the properties, I can move the stick or press buttons and see the answers on the screen).  But I can't get the game to respond to the gamepad.  Any ideas?    When I click on settings on the game homepage screen, a box pops up saying "your joystick device has changed"non typeable characters"to"various non typeable characters".»  You want to reset the control assignments? (recommended) "the characters change every time I do this.  I tried answer Yes and then after a few tries I answered no.  Same results, the joystick is not in the game anyway.  I looked in the CombatFS.cfg file and found similar characters in the section of the controller (LastJoystickName = 'non typeable characters') thank you, John
