    XBOX360 wireless controller appears as unknown device since 2004 update Qg2JhNEEEO4x3oNEDCrl5zRCH1HoGmYz4bbJbl54T94.jpg

    It's usually the same up until 2004 update: It would appear as an unknown device, I would right click on it and manually select the XBOX360 wireless receiver driver and everything used to work like this.

    Now, no matter which driver do I choose it seems like it does not finish installing, and the deevice remains as "Unknown device"

  2. My Xbox360 controller is not recognized

    When I plug in my Xbox360 controller, I get a message saying the USB device is not recognized. The Controller is listed under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" as "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)" Under Properties it says

    "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

    A request for the USB device descriptor failed." Is there a solution to this problem? My friends would probably kill me if I tried to play Dark Souls with a keyboard

  3. X800 GTO2 = Unknown Device

    I flashed the BIOS on my X800 GTO2 last night and it is listed in the Device Manager as an Unknown Device. Is this normal?

    Xbox360 Gaming Receiver not working properly

    My Xbox360 wireless receiver recently has stopped working properly. My Xbox360 controller won't connect to it sometimes but when it DOES connect to it, it works for a few minutes then it stops working again but the guide button stays on the 1st player light
    despite this. When I plug the receiver in and I turn on my controller, the four lights just keep blinking on the controller most of the time. But like I said, it does work sometimes but only works for a while. There is nothing wrong with the device according
    to the device manager. When I go to the device manager, it is listed as "Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows" and not "Unidentified Device" so I know that's not the problem. So what could possibly be wrong? I run on Windows 10 64 bit by the way.

    Edit: I updated the wireless receiver driver so that it's listed as "Xbox 360 Controller for Windows" and it works fine now. It connects every time no matter what and I can play games with it too fine. If it stops working ill do another update. But it seems
    to be working fine.

    Update: Well I'm back to my original problem. The device refuses to work after a few minutes perhaps the receiver is malfunctioning?
