    Controller not working on pc


    Pc running windows 7.

    I connect controller via usb to c cable.

    Pc sees controller but it says no driver found.

    I’ve tried updating and searching for drivers but it can’t see it.

    It is a brand new controller.

    Any ideas? We’ve tried and tried just can’t get it to work.

    Thank you

    :)

    Trying to use XBOX 360 controller with my PC

    My MadCatz 360 controller works with PC games, so yes third party wired controllers do work on the PC.

    Controller not working on pc

    It’s the newest Xbox controller.

    My old Xbox controller worked via a usb cable but this new one won’t.

    Both controllers official Xbox

    Thank you for your reply. Is it the new controller that doesn’t work on windows 10? That’s a shame I’ve bought a new controller for nothing 😪

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Thomas, what would be the control that tries to connect to the PC with windows 7, would it be an original Xbox or some other thisrd party controls?

    If it's an original Xbox controller it only works on Windows 10 and 11.

    Using windows controllers to control Xbox one

    If your controllers are wireless, then you are going to need the Xbox 360 wireless adapter for PC to be able to connect the controller to the PC. https://bit.ly/3zldL21

    If it's wired, then just plugging the controllers into the PC via the USB socket should work fine.
    The OP is trying to control his Xbox One whilst having the controller plugged into the PC rather than having issues connecting the controller to PC.

    I don't see how controlling your XB1 with a PC connected controller would even work...not unless there is some sort of remote share function or other on the XB1 maybe? Much like PCs have remote desktops to control it from another location?
