Step 3: Connect the Xbox 360 wireless controller to your computer
- Turn on the Xbox 360 wireless controller by pressing and holding the Guide button .
- On the receiver, press the connect button, which is a circular button located near the middle of the receiver. The light will flash green.
Firstly I downloaded the drivers for the controller and the wireless adaptor manually. Then uninstalled these and let Windows download them manually.
The problem is that my PC simply is not detecting the controller when connected wirelessly. The steps I am doing are these precisely:
- I turn on the controller pressing the Xbox button which starts blinking slowly
- then I turn on the wireless option in the controlling by pressing the wireless button for about 3 seconds and the LED starts blinking rapidly
- then I plug in the adaptor and turn it in by pressing the wireless button for about 3 seconds and it starts blinking slowly, more or less at the same rate than the controller LED
- then I press the Xbox controller button several times until both controller and adaptor LEDs stop blinking, which I assume mean the wireless connection has been established (I have never had an Xbox so I don't know if this is it for sure)
However the PC doesn't detect any new device at all. The controller is not listed by the Device Manager nor it's listed when running joy.cpl either. So it seems like the connection happens but the PC doesn't detect the controller. After a brief instant the device connection seems to be lost because the controller LED starts blinking again, although the adaptor stays on and not blinking.
I think it's worth mentioning that when both LEDs stop blinking and stay lit at the same time the Device Manager list flashes and refreshes as if a new device was connected, however no new device is listed nor no Windows popup window lets you know you have connected the controller. This flash and refresh effect also happens when the controller 'disconnects' from the adaptor (when the controller LED goes back at blinking slowly again).
edit: I am going to add some more information after sizzling suggested reinstalling the wireless adapter driver. This is what happened, quoting myself:
