I bought a wireless gaming receiver for my XBox 360 controller this week, so I can use it to play compatible games on steam. (If anyone wondering, it was one of these)
Whilst it’s a cheap knock-off, it works just fine so long as you know how to install it. Thankfully I read the comments first and didn’t even attempt to use the supplied CD. I’m reproducing the comment here just incase I ever need to reinstall it in future and can’t find the comment.
Firstly, download the drivers – thanks Random Stranger (old link) and install them. Then:
- Right click on Computer
- Go to Properties
- Click on Device Manager
- Right click on the Unidentified Device
- Go to Properties
- Go to the Drive tab
- Click on Update Driver…
- Browse my computer for driver software
- Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer

Driver Download For Windows 10
I'm having a problem installing a wired 360 controller to my windows 7 64 bit pc.
I understand that there are lots of threads about this, but the software seems to be so badly designed that every problem is unique and most answers have little relevance to my problem.
When I plug the controller into the USB port, it says 'USB device not recognized' and won't install the driver.
I have installed the driver software and it appears under the start menu, however when i try to manually update the driver via device manager, the driver does not appear in the menu. for clarity, I am talking about the 'manual driver update' process, I navigate to the Microsoft section but there is in the box is keyboard/officer drivers, no controller ones.
I read somewhere that this may be caused by permissions. but I am the only user on the system and so I have no idea how to remedy that.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
