    Xbox 360 Controller Issues on PC


    Having issues with a 360 controller running on Windows 7. For some reason, pulling the right trigger locks in that command. The device behaves as though you are holding down the trigger even after you release it. Pulling the left trigger overrides this
    temporarily, but as soon as you release it, it returns to the right trigger locked state.

    I have tested the controller on other computers (also running Windows 7), and it worked fine. I updated the drivers to the same versions that are on the other computers, but I am still having this issue. Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    Hi

    As this is a new controller have you considered this could be an issue with the controller and not a PC/software issue are you able to try using and alternate Xbox 360 controller on this PC to see if you experience the same problems?

    Hiya!

    Paul from the Xbox Forums Team here to assist with the issue, it looks like you're trying to get a Xbox 360 controller to work on your pc. How is this controller connecting to your PC? Is it a wired controller or wireless controller? If it's a wireless 360
    controller there is a wireless dongle that would be needed to have the controller work on PC. Please let us know.

    Happy Gaming!

    Xbox 360 Controller Issues on PC

    It's very tough thing to troubleshoot, as it might be the OS and drivers, or the controller. I'd say check the USB port you're using on the PC, try a different one. Is this a wired controller, or are you using the Xbox 360 wireless connector?

    EDIT: Fixed it. Fiddled with drivers and uninstalling/reinstalling programs for a while, but eventually figured out that I just had to run the joy.cpl program and recalibrate the controller (there's a calibrate button on the Settings tab).

    This is an Xbox 360 Wired Controller btw.

    This is wired USB controller. I think that wire is broken.

    Sorry for bad English.

    Can I use Original Xbox360 controller on pc (the controller of the xbox360)?

    If the Xbox 360 controller is a wired controller, then the controller can be used on the PC, just plug it in the USB port, and it should recognize it and let you use it. If it is a wireless Xbox 360 controller, then you will need the Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows to connect the controller to your PC.
