Trying to connect a legit DS3 controller to Windows 7 64 Bit. Model number CECHZC2U.
I have 2 different controllers of this model, they both work perfectly with my ps3.
I'm finding neither of them are connecting properly to my PC. When plugging in by USB they show as charging and the red lights flash, but device manager does not recognise them, nor my devices under control panel.
I don't think you have a legit PS3 controller.** Does it say "P3" in the middle, rather than the proper PS3 logo?
(** Edit: Statement retracted! It seems my imitation controller has the same model # as an official PS3 controller.)
I bought one of
these from Amazon, and I can't get it to work on my Windows 7 (64-bit) system, which is disappointing because I read the customer reviews prior to purchase and three different reviewers claimed they successfully used the controller on their PCs.
I have spent a LOT of hours trying to get it to work!
However I only just noticed
this on page 93 of this thread:

So I'm really not sure how those reviewers got the controller to work.
When I initially connect the controller, it shows up as "PS(
R) Gamepad" in
Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers, and also on the list of Game Controllers (by selecting
Set up USB game controllers from the Start menu, or
Game Controller Settings from the device's context menu).
As one would expect, it doesn't actually work at this stage: clicking Properties brings up the Test dialogue, but hitting buttons on the controller has no effect.
With the Scp drivers installed, and ScpServer.exe running, an additional controller appears in Devices and Printers ("Xbox 360 Controller for Windows"). And in Game Controllers the PS(
R) Gamepad has been replaced by "Controller (XBOX 360 For Windows)".
No errors appear in SCP Server's output (all the messages say DEBUG or INFO in the Level column). Everything looks good so far.
Except at the top it reads:
Code:
Host Address : Disconnected
Pad 1 : DS3 00:26:5C:2E:XX:XX - USB 00000000 None
This doesn't look right - it's different from the screenshots in any of the tutorials I've followed.
(SCP Monitor shows the same info as above.)
And when I try to test the controller from
Game Controllers/Properties, nothing happens. The buttons/sticks have zero effect.
Additional info about my system:
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (SP1, fully updated)
ScpServer v1.5.5756.37820 (downloaded yesterday)
