    My Xbox 360 controller has stopped working


    My Xbox 360 controller has stopped working as i was using it to configure the settings for Dark Souls, i've tried everything i could, i've updated the drivers, i've checked for hardware changes. tried all my USB ports, ran the troubleshooter for Hardware and Devices, rebooted my PC a thousand times, updated windows to the last version (Windows 10) opened the controller and cleaned it, unintalled Dark Souls and simply anything i could find on the internet and it still doesn't even turn on, i still get the "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)" message on the Device Manager. i really hope you can help me with this because i really wanted to play and playing with mouse and keyboard would be hell for me, thanks in advance.

    :)

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

    My name is Welcome to the community.

    Hello UmbarTU, try connecting your controller to another PC to see if it works, if it doesn't work the problem is with the controller.

    Xbox 360 wireless controller has stopped working.

    Try taking your controllers to a friends house, (one who has an XBOX obviously), and see if your controllers work that way. If they work at your friends, then yes it is something to do with your console. However, due to the fact that the console does not
    affect controllers having the ability to just turn on, it is most likely just your controllers.

    Xbox 360 wireless controller has stopped working.

    UPDATE:

    I tried using my Xbox with my other controller and it had the same issues. So either both controllers spontaneously stopped working at the same time (highly unlikely) or the problem lies with the Xbox itself.

    Hey mate, it's hard to say what could be the issue as electronics products can give up without any notice, I can only suggest if you have the charge cable to try and plug that in to see if it works with a direct power source, also try the troubleshooting
    steps here:

    Other then that, it might be a new controller, unfortunately.
