I have just updated to windows 10 from 7 just to use the windows store for games for my old desktop.Problem is when i connect a xbox360 pad to my pc it wipes the usb drivers so no usb slots work untill i restart the computer,Then only 2 work till i update the usb drivers one by one in device manager.Does the 360 pad need to be a solid wired one or will the usb charging port lead work aswell because it works with the xbox when there is no batterys in the pad and its recognised in windows 7

    I'm avoiding buying from the big 3 at all atm
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At one point PC game pads where poorly supported, loading a game had setup, it was complicated. Now it's almost as easy as a console.
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    nintendo needs to up their game soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah even bt support for Xbox one controllers are just as easy as pairing
     +1
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    considering the steamdeck can emulate the switch (yikes) theres almost 0 reason to buy the switch apart from playing online and using cartridges
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Xinput and 360 dongles were a driver nightmare
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I remember having to manually put in drivers and what not
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah the 360 dongles sucked
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But the new Xbox pads? PIr it up and if a game supports it it just works
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most emulators even automatically detect them now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's a good time to be alive lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Pi4 and Batocera works with them perfectly too
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd like to see future tap to pair options like you hold it over a scanner and it just automatically pairs
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No need for additional cords buttons or anything
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Hmmm yeah that is possible BT has an address like an IP
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Scan a QR code on your phone open a page with the controller and a QR code for the device, hit go and done
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    One less latency issue for radio frequency
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Or even wifi pair opening just an app to sign is nice
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it could be hosted on the phone hmmm it's an idea Ken
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    But could be bad for people with lower speeds but how many mbs would it really need to detect a button press
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Nearly nothing
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Most of it BT used
