Once you’ve downloaded the correct driver, install it in the usual way. Major Nelson being, of course, Larry Hryb, director of programming for Xbox Live. If you’re worried about downloading drivers from some random site, you should note that those drivers are actually hosted on Major Nelson’s blog.
#PDP XBOX ONE CONTROLLER PC DRIVER 64 BIT#
Get the 32 bit driver here or the 64 bit driver here. To change back to the older drivers, where both triggers were on the Z Axis, first download the drivers using the following links. Close the Game Controller configuration window for now, before moving on to the next step. If you see both of these, then your pad is using the newer drivers. Notice in the window above there’s both “Z Axis” and “Z Rotation”. On the “Game Controllers” window that then opens, click on your controller in the list and then in the properties window, make sure that the “Test” tab is selected (click any picture on the page for a bigger view). Connect the controller with a USB cable and then search for “Set up USB game controllers” and click on the icon that appears. By trying to fix this, Microsoft have, perhaps inevitably, caused a whole bunch of other problems, but luckily there’s a workaround, at least when using the controller in wired mode.įirst of all, you should determine which drivers are installed for your pad. Since both triggers were mapped to the same axis, you couldn’t press the accelerator and brake at the same time to perform advanced manoeuvres in a driving game, for instance. One of the most common criticisms of the Xbox 360 controller was how its analogue triggers behaved in older (DirectInput) games. The reason for this problem is a change Microsoft made in the pads drivers. If you’ve used the controller before on Windows 7 or 8, this is all the more puzzling as the games may well have worked just fine on your old OS. Perhaps the character in the game keeps moving, or your car just spins around uncontrollably.

If you’ve bought an Xbox One controller and used it with your Windows 10 PC, you’ve probably noticed that a bunch of your older games don’t work properly any more. The game is Sega’s Binary Domain, which somehow manages to mess up all the button mappings when using the Xbox One pad.
#PDP XBOX ONE CONTROLLER PC DRIVER UPDATE#
Update – We’ve so far found just one game that is Xbox 360 controller compatible that doesn’t work with the Xbox One pad when using these drivers. Since adding the Xbox One Chatpad and updating the controllers firmware, we’re seeing just the Y rotation and no Z rotation on the latest drivers. Update 2 – Microsoft might have actually fixed this in a recent update, so this whole switching drivers thing may not be necessary any more. There is no problem with the original 360 controller. The game simply refuses to accept any input when the Xbox One controller is connected.
Update 3 – Found another game that inexplicably has problems with the Xbox One pad – House of the Dead 2 by Sega. Note that if you switch to the older driver you break compatibility with the Xbox One chatpad. It’s a little difficult to understand why Microsoft are making such a mess of this. We’re also seeing a lot of reports of broken compatibility. Somehow the separate axis for the triggers is back again. Update 4 – Well, we’re going around in circles.
