  1. Calibrating my Xbox Controller doesn't work.


    Guys,

    I have an xbox 360 controller just repaired but the right stick isn't centered. When i calibrate it with the windows built in tool.. it doesn't change anything.. it always comes back to this.. (see first picture)

    When i use their Game Controller tester i see this:


    Calibrating my Xbox Controller doesn't work. [​IMG]


    The stats on the left stick varies.. but it works fine.. never goes over 10% in any direction.. the Right stick on the other hand (the one i replaced)... is ALWAYS 11% and 8% and that makes it drift very very very slightly.. but enough to cause problems
    in shooter games..

    Is there any way to calibrate the controller? Other than the Windows tool? Cuz that doesn't work.

    :)

    Xbox wirefree for win 7 not detected in joy.cpl

    Hi Andre,

    So to understand the situation you are on Windows 7 and you cannot find the driver for the Xbox controller but a Logitech controller does work when wired, is that correct?

    If so, are you trying to use an Xbox 360 controller, and have you tried it wired as well?

    Here is an article on how to calibrate Xbox 360 controllers for Windows. You'll need to plug it into the PC using a USB cable:

    Not the permanant solution I was looking for.

    However, I did try using a PS4 controler and the calibration worked for that.

    not sure why it refuses to calibrate the Xbox controller.

    Why is my right analog stick not working on Xbox

    Hello Troll2, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

    I'm sorry you're going through this.
    We will try to repair it
    The right analog stick may be out of calibration. Try calibrating your controllers by following these steps:

    Connect your controller to the Xbox.
    Go to your Xbox console settings and select "Devices and accessories."
    Select the controller you want to calibrate and then select "Calibrate."
    Follow the on-screen instructions to calibrate the controller.
    Once the calibration is complete, check if the right analog stick is working properly.

    It is also possible that the right analog stick is dirty or has debris that is affecting its operation. Try to carefully clean the joystick with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using strong liquids or chemicals as these could damage the controller. After cleaning it, check if the joystick works properly.

    Best regards.

    Thanks for your response. I seem to have a problem where XNA Gamepad doesn't appear therefore I can't continue to calibrate my controller.
