    Xbox 360 wireless controller for windows 7


    Hi,

    I need to get an adapter and new wireless xbox 360 controller to hook up with windows 7. Will an old xbox 360 wireless controller be compatible with the latest version of the adapter? Is this all I need to hook up my controllers with my pc?

    Thanks

    :)

    Will Xbox 360 slim controller work with Windows XP?

    The wired controllers work just fine. If you are purchasing a wireless controller, make sure it comes with the wireless adapter for your pc.

    You can go here
    www.microsoft.com/.../xbox-360-wireless-controller-for-windows     for the drivers. These work on XP, Vista and windows 7.

    By "latest version of the adapter", you mean
    this adapter    , then this will not work with Xbox 360 controllers. This one is only designed for Xbox One controllers.

    Microsoft doesn't seem to sell the 360 wireless receiver anymore, but you can
    get it here from Amazon    .

    For the 360 wireless receiver, yes, that is all you need to hook up your 360 controller to the PC. Press the sync button on both the adapter and controller, it should connect without a problem and be instantly recognized by your Windows 7 system.

    Xbox 360 Controller does not work on my PC ?

    I am guessing the controller is a wired controller as the Wireless controller with Wireless PC adapter comes with drivers on a DVD in the box which work with Windows 8 (I use them myself).

    As mentioned earlier by IceStorm III, a wireless controller with a Play and Charge kit won't work as that play and charge kit only carries power to charge/run a wireless controller with your Xbox 360.

    If it is indeed a wired Xbox 360 controller you are trying to use with Windows 8 you can use the Windows 7 drivers which you can download here:

    www.microsoft.com/.../xbox-360-controller-for-windows

    drivers

    Depending on which version of Windows you use depends on which drivers you need.

    Windows 7 you can find them here
    https://www.microsoft.com/accessories/en-gb/d/xbox-360-controller-for-windows

    Windows 8/10 Drivers are automatically installed when you plug the Xbox 360 wired controller into your PC.

    If you are trying to hook up a wireless controller, then you need a Xbox 360 wireless gaming receiver for windows

    https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-on-windows/accessories/xbox-360-wireless-gaming-receiver-windows

    If you are trying to connect the Xbox 360 controller to the PC with a play & charge kit, then that will not work, as the cable will only work on the PC to charge the controller's play & charge battery.
