Need help setting up 360 controller

[Harpr33t]

Well i need help setting up my 360 controller for pc. I would like to try it out for CS:S and cod5 and whatnot but i can't seem to set the keys up with it.

AFAIK CS:S isn't designed to be compatible with any game controller; I'm not sure about COD5. Even if they were, mouse and keyboard are far superior when it comes to fps games.

yeah, zero but im just tired of leaning forward and playing and just would like to try it out.

Look for 3rd party software, or even better yet actually try looking on microsoft's drivers pages.

Plug it in.










































No but srsly, try this (http://www.switchbladegaming.com/)program.
I used to use my 360 controller to play css but I started using my mouse/keyboard again.

leaning forward? sounds like you have either a bad chair or bad monitor. unless im like the last dude alive against like 4 other ppl, i lean back in my comfy ass chair.

I had the leaning forward problem......

Lousy chair...not designed for a computer, no arm rests, bad backrest. The table was really far forward, and the chair wouldn't get any closer. The keyboard stand didn't come out far at all.

Got a new computer chair, amazinG and a really cool table.


ANYWAY........You would think Microsoft would have something for this.......considering they make 360's???

no my chair is made for leaning back, and my computer desk is for leaning forward , my mic is also the kind you let stand on the desktop. anyway queef thxs for that program it did it.

try http://www.switchbladegaming.com/

it's probably one of the more popular programs for getting 360 controllers to work on pc.

[Caution]

if you have a wireless controller, you need to buy a router or use a program like that stated above.

if you have a wired controller, just download the drivers for it for free.

i got the controller from http://club.live.com/Pages/Prizes/Prize_Mall.aspx
and foooor freeee.
Also it came with that wireless adapter thing.

I didn't notice this earlier but Switchblade has switched to paid program ($20 a year), but for the drivers you can get them here http://www.download.com/XBOX-360-Controller-For-Windows/3000-18490_4-83516.html?tag=mncol
