Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver - this is going to work with a remote xbox?

Hi, I have the xbox 360 Wireless gaming receiver and I am trying to get a remote control for it.  Does the xbox 360 remote sync to the xbox or is it just regular IR

Thanks for your help

The xbox 360 remote control Infra-red, the 360 has an IR receiver port.

The wireless gaming receiver is radio only, so will not pick up the remote control. There isn't AFAIK a 'remote control' for the wireless receiver such that it has a validity of the Protocol only for xbox 360 Wireless devices, although there are a lot of 3rd inventive party accessories available, there might be something. You can of course use one of these wireless devices as a remote for other applications with the right software (xpadder, beam, etc.).

The Xbox 360 remote control can be used with a PC using an IR receiver, but it's not plug-and-play, here is a solution: http://www.redmondpie.com/using-xbox-360-ir-remote-with-vista-media-center/

Other that that, there are a multitude of remotes for PC, IR and wireless (including bluetooth). Bluetooth is the option if you want to keep your number of receivers plugged into your pc to a minimum, however, IR is still much better for the battery of remote controls (why it is still used despite the benefits of the radio).

    Hello

    You re right Satellite L500 doesn t have an internal modem, so you need an external.

    I think you can buy every modem that is compatible with Vista. Alternative ask your favorite computer dealer or authorized service provider

  • Wireless Microsoft notebook optical mouse does not work with g42 - 410 us laptop

    Wireless Microsoft notebook optical mouse does not work with g42 - 410 us laptop

    Hi Mary,

    Did you install all the necessary drivers, firmware and/or software Intellisoft of the mouse and then restart?

    You have good batteries in the mouse?

    Verify that the mouse is compatible with working computer and your operating system?

    Have you checked the mouse icon in the control panel (after all of the above) to a setting to activate?

    Contact the vendor of your computer and see if you need to update something else.  When I installed my wireless mouse, it wouldn't work until I updated the touchpad, the firmware drivers and.

    Good luck!

  • Message: this device could better work with usb 2.0 when you connect the USB device.

    Original title: USB 2.0

    I get the message "this device could better work with usb 2.0", how do I change 1.0?

    I get the message "this device could better work with usb 2.0", how do I change 1.0?

    To answer your question directly: you replace with USB 1.0 (most likely USB 1.1) USB 2.0 by the purchase of new equipment.

    If you have a desktop computer, you can buy an internal with several Sockets USB 2.0 card.

    If you have a laptop, you can get a card with 2 ports USB PC Adapter 2.0

    Before you buy anything, however, if you have a desktop computer, it is possible that some (but not all) of your taken USB is 2.0.  Open the Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK), click on the + sign next to the category "Controllers of Bus USB" and watch the 'Host controllers' listed there.  If any host controller is 'enhanced' then you have at least one (and probably 2) USB 2.0 taken somewhere on the computer.

    The computer should take a standard ATX power supply unit (PSU).  I suggest to measure the existing PSU and compare measures in the links.  If the measurements are the same, it should fit.  I don't know anything about the brand, however.

  • PX1266E 250 GB external USB HDD - it's going to work with USB1.0

    I just bought a PX1266E 250 GB external hard drive USB need USB 2.0. My PC is quite old and has only USB 1.0. My new external hard drive works with USB 1.0?

    Usually, the USB 2.0 standard is compatible to the bottom. This means that external USB 2.0 devices are able to operate with standard USB 1.0.
    If your device supports only the 1.0 standard USB HARD drive should work, but data transfer is much lower than the USB 2.0 connection.
