Okay, so I've tried for a while now to connect my xbox controller to my pc, idk if im doing something wrong or what but hey.
so I'm trying to connect it with a normal android phone charger, I dont have a bluetooth adapter, just been trying to connect it with usb. I plug it all in etc etc, turn the controller on and all i get is it flashing like its trying to pick up a console, when i plug in the charger the controller vibrates but my pc doesnt seem to detectt it, its the same with my phone it doesnt pick my phone up either, so maybe i can kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Does anyone know how to get it working? I will literally kiss you |

Search "USB Game Controller" on your PC and it brings up a menu to set it up, if that does not work I would see if you can update your USB driver or the controller firmware? |

Delete it from the devices and try brand new install. After that, If When you plug it in. Does it scan for the device to try and install it? |

I'd say it's probably the wire then. Sometimes the wire will just charge and not actually pick up whatever you've plugged in. Do you have any more to test out? |
