I just set up the receiver yesterday as well and also installed Pinnacle Profiler. Until then, my Xbox 360 Controller Wireless Receiver Adapter for Windows is unused, but I have high hopes.
#XBOX WIRELESS CONTROLLER DRIVER ERROR INSTALL#
Who am I to install some crazy remapping software that's not Vista savvy. This was of course, far too dangerous to risk on my new Vista machine, as things are humming along nicely so far. Unfortunately, not only does it have trouble on Vista, but it caused Vista to display this astonishingly scary pair of dialogs that I'd never seen before:
#XBOX WIRELESS CONTROLLER DRIVER ERROR SERIES#
There IS, however, a tool called the Pinnacle Game Profiler that says it'll add support for a Joystick to any game through a series of remapping profiles.

There's just not a lot of Games out yet (and the Games site's "Game Advisor" doesn't support FireFox!). That's certainly something to look forward to. The newer ones must support this controller (and widescreen monitors!) along with 64-bit Vista. I tried to get the Xbox 360 Controller to work in Half-Life 2, but unless I choose to learn the obscure HL2 language for this kind of thing, it makes the controller less useful.Īll the "Games for Windows" games must meet a certain level of compatibility, but that doesn't help me for older games. Well, this is a great dialog, but there's no support for remapping. Looks like the Controller just shows up like it's a joystick in Windows, which is it. Cool, I just click the button on the Receiver and the button on the Xbox 360 Controller and they are sync'ed. I'll run Microsoft Xbox 360 Accessories Status now. Why isn't this updating process integrated into Windows Update?Īlright then. There's a Check For Updates icon that points to checker.exe. You know what the ironic part is? Take a look at the Program Group in Explorer after everything is installed. If the 1.0 setup was built to check for newer ones, this whole thing could have been seamless. Considering that the 1.0 disc I have is totally useless, I can assume that someone realized at the last minute that there's a bunch of Vista machines that were going to get this error message.
#XBOX WIRELESS CONTROLLER DRIVER ERROR UPDATE#
Make it easy to update your software, and if you ship a setup.exe, teach it to "phone home" if there's a crucial update. I guess I click on that.Īll righty.now we're getting somewhere. You could have just launched a browser and included this info in the URL/QueryString. You know I'm trying to install this Gaming thingie. Moral: Don't force your users to click and answer questions when the answer is already available in "context" for the taking.

I guess my Pentium 4 4Ghz with 2gigs of RAM and a 256M video card isn't up to the task. My Experience Index in Vista Ultimate is 4.2, and my graphics index is 5.6. Didn't make it very far, this is the first thing I saw.

I got this dialog after running Setup.exe. "Setup cannot install this software because your computer does not meet the system requirements."

One stop closer to the "Games for Windows" (i.e. Seems like a brilliant idea, right? A small USB dongle that lets you use your Xbox 360 Wireless Accessories on your PC. I've got an Xbox 360, and I've got a PC and I've got four (4) Xbox 360 wireless controllers, so it was a natural thing when I saw the "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver Adapter for Windows" that I'd take a look. I really hope this helps anyone else out there with the same issues as me.(Note, I'm intentionally being a little dense here to make a point.)īTW: If you want to skip to the point, get the updated 1.1 software here: Xbox 360 Accessories Software 1.1 32-bit for Windows Vista and bypass the excessive clicking.

Products: Windows 10 Anniversary Update and Later Servicing Drivers,Windows 10 S and Later Servicing Drivers What actually fixed it was a NEWER, entirely different (and deceptively named) driver in the Update Catalog.
#XBOX WIRELESS CONTROLLER DRIVER ERROR CODE#
I figured out that you can use the “Have disk…” option in the driver update dialog to force the install, but that still didn’t fix it - Device Manager correctly identified the device as “Xbox Wireless Adapter”, but it showed error code 10 and still failed to work.
