Hi folks, Pretty much on a whim today, I picked up an x box 360 controller, one of the wireless ones that come with the USB wireless dongle thingy and Windows drivers. Far from my usual style to just take a punt on something without daft amounts of research, but I really liked the design of the pad for almost every type of game I could think of, and I haven't seen that in a pad since dreamcast days so I had to have it.
Now, here's the issue. I've installed the software that came on the cd called microsoft xbox 360 accessories, and the drivers too. From what I can tell with Jaws 10, everything except for the help system seems to be totally inaccessible, so thanks for that Bill! The dongle half of the equation is detected fine by Windows, but in spite of batteries being in the controller I'm getting no action. I guess I have to pair them up somehow, but the help system only describes how to use the accessories software post-installation, and I couldn't find an electronic copy of the manual on the cd. I fear it might be a case of sit down with a sighty for a few minutes to figure this one out. Next time I'll have chance to do that isn't until late into the weekend though, so I also figured it'd be worth a post to the list to ask if anybody has the same hardware and knows what I'm missing. Really hoping that the inaccessible software won't matter too much once I know what I'm doing because I'm all over the design of the pad itself and don't want to return it unless I have too.
