Wireless Gaming Receiver Compatible with The Microsoft Xbox 360 for PC Controller Windows

The receiver works just like it should. I haven't noticed a difference between the original receiver and this receiver at all besides the color but that doesn't effect the use of it. It does support up to 4 controller per receiver. Now, to get the drivers installed follow the simple guide from below step by step.Guide for Windows 10 only -1. Plug in the receiver in any USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port (gray/black or blue/red respectively)2. You'll hear a notification sound on your computer once plugged in, this means that the computer recognized something being plugged in.3. The light on the receiver will turn on, but this doesn't mean anything because it's not functional yet.4. Right click on the start menu and open "Device Manager", should be the 5th option for Windows 1909.5. If you scroll down through all the different devices and past the drop down menus, you'll see a device named "Unknown Device"6. Right click on it and select "update drivers".7. Now select "Browse my computer for driver software"8. Now select "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer"9. A window with a bunch of different devices will pop-up but we'll scroll all the way down to "Xbox 360 Peripherals"10. Double click on it and select "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows"11. You'll get a pop-up stating that installing drivers manually might break you're device, trust me, it this won't break it because I've done this a multiple times and if it does, just return the receiver or exchange.12. It should say that the drivers successfully installed, now reboot the computer, and DO NOT connect the controller(s) yet, only try so after rebooting. I say this because if you do so before, the receiver might also assign a controller profile to itself and make itself player 1 which will limit you to only 3 controllers.You will have to follow these steps each time you connect it to a different computer or even a different USB port on the same computer.If you need a visual, look up a video and if it's too old of a video then just try to combine these steps with the video.

I got this to work with the Xbox 360 wireless steering wheel. I followed the YouTube video for installing the drivers. Windows 10 device manager. Properties. Update driver. Choose the one that’s selecting manually. It took you to a screen that’s a little different now than what you see in the YouTube video but you will be presented with a list of something like Xbox 360 peripherals. The driver is as of March 2019 this year. It plugs in and pairs instantly. I haven’t tried it with a 360 regular controller yet but it connects the racing wheel perfectly. It’s just unfortunate certain games don’t support it like forza. But dirt rally works perfectlyUpdate : feb 2010I have since used this with the 360 wireless. I have been using a dell optiplex 7010 gaming system with a 4k 60hz tv to play rocket league and it works great. The only complaint I have and it’s most likely with my computers barely functioning USB ports is whenever I plug the adapter back in, I have to goto device manager and manually update the driver each time. It isn’t a big deal because I’ve gotten good at remembering how to do that. If your not experienced with working on computers and trouble shooting them I won’t recommend this route to you, you would probably give this a 1 star rating. But if you can remember those few extra steps it works great and haven’t had a problem. It’s only when I skip those steps is when I have a problem with it.

Windows recognizes that it's plugged in, but only shows it as an "Unknown USB Device". I somehow managed to get it working for a few hours, but it stopped working some time after that.Manually trying to tell Device Manager what it is doesn't work. Going to "Let me pick from a list of available drivers" doesn't show Xbox peripherals at all. Instead it shows a list of manufacturers, and there's nothing in the Microsoft section.The device DOES come with a CD that supposedly contains its drivers. Except I haven't had a disc reader on my computer in about a decade. And the CD is actually a mini-CD. Remember those? I haven't seen those in like 20 years.Avoid this brand, if you can. I'm sure they're selling them under a dozen other randomly-generated brand names.

great value for the money. name brand ones are very expensive for how old they are and in my opinion just not worth it. a couple extra steps to get this one working and I saved a bunch of money. however, the first unit I ordered was defective. I installed everything correctly and it just wouldn't work. only powered on about half the time, and even then it wouldn't connect. I checked my order status and there was an option to request a replacement, and was sent a replacement free of charge and beings that I had already installed the old one correctly it was plug and play.pros-cheaper than original-works wonderfully-syncs easily and with no issues-little to no latencycons-extra setup than original-chance of defective

I purchased this to use my existing Xbox 360 controllers to play Mortal Kombat 1 on the PC. Driver installation was a breeze using instructions shared in other reviews here. Latency is good, no problem connecting two controllers. Perfect for this application.

I see that people are having issues with installing the drivers for this so here are the steps.1. Plug device into USB port2. Right click the Windows icon and select Device Manager3. Find Unknown Device and right click4. Click on Update Driver5. Scroll down to Xbox 360 Peripherals6. Select Xbox Wireless Adapter(I don't remember the exact date but the year is 09)7. You'll see a warning due to your not knowing what is but click OK.8. Sync your controller9. Enjoy!
