Vohn stop crying because you are to stupid to figure this easy shit out! When you click load driver on Method B, it loads driver. Just because a program doesn’t have a little retard bar that fills up doesn’t mean it is not working. After you hit load driver with your controller plugged in go to start/control panel/printers and other hardware/game controllers/properties. There you go. If the controller is plugged in, it works now. It is very simple! Learn the controller config and go into options of any game and set config the way you like it. Cake

Thank you very much for this post. I’ve been looking all the day and this is the best one I found. Now I can play with rumble. Thanks

Method B works for some games not all. Unfortunately, nothing works for every game but the Jap drivers have proven to be most successful so far. Many people are using it to play emulated PS games on PC.

ON second though, I give up. I’ve tried three of the four ways to connect, and none of them work. The ones that ask you to update your drivers, they tell me the device is in use by another process, which doesn’t show up on my process lists and I can’t change anyway.

Method B brings up that spify “Load Driver/Exit” dialog box, which is real pretty. If it actually did something when you clicked “load driver,” that’d be real useful. But the universe hates me so I was stupid for trying. OH well, I didn’t really want to do anything those two hours I spent on futility.

Using method A, what do we run as administrator? When I double click on the installer, it installs. That creates a folder in my program files, and a spot in my start menu. There are about five thousand nine hundred eighty four different things in the folder in the program files. They all look like they work together,and nothing appears to be a specific driver that I’d click on and select “run as administrator” on.

The folder in the start menu allows me to run a test, or uninstall. I’ve tried running the test as as administrator and with windows compatability mode as well. I’ve ran the other thing once and then did everything step by step, and it will show that I have a controller, but I can’t calibrate it or do anything else with it, no matter how many times I press the ps button. However, when I began to play the game of life, I accidentally chose “hard mode.” So it could just be that the universe hates me. Please advise.

yeah, there was no luck there, ended up re-installing win7 :/ but I guess if I set a restore point and only try one method ata time, shoiuld be ok?

Most likely the Libusb drivers are the one causing all the problem. Uninstall it and clear all the remnants of it. There might be libusb0.dll file in your Windows folder. It should fix the problem.
