Ghetto Wireless Receiver For Xbox 360 Controller

[MadManMarsBar]

Hey everyone

 

Before i get to the ghetto mod , a little back story as to why i made it in the first place

i switched from xbox gaming to PC gaming about a year ago and all was fine with keyboard and mouse until i was gifted NFS Shift 2 Unleashed on steam

i soon realized that a keyboard wasn't precise enough for it so i set about ghetto modding a receiver

 

Parts you will need :

 

1. RF board From an old xbox 

2. a USB cable with male one end and female on the other end 

3 . some masking tape or insulation tape

 

NOTE : to sync the Controller with the board you will either need to sync it while the RF board is attached to the xbox OR

have a play and charge kit to plug into the PC while the receiver is plugged in

 

Step 1 : 

 

remove the metal shroud From the plug on the back of the RF board , should look like this afterwards 

 

Step 2 : 

 

Place some Tape on the side of the connector which has 5 connections 

 

Step 3 : 

 

Plug on the female end of the USB and Download the relevant drivers from the microsoft website and installe them

 

 

NOTE , Like i said before you either have to sync it while the RF board is attached to the Xbox OR have a charge and play cable to sync it with your PC

NOTE 2 , this Video should help with the Driver install  :

 

 

EDIT sorry for the bad pics im stuck with my old Blackberry until i get a new phone

Or you could just buy a wireless receiver for £4 and save your self the trouble, but it is quite cool.
