Hello all,

 

I have come across an issue when trying to use my Xbox 360 wired controller on my PC to play games like Battlegrounds and Fortnite. When I plug it in to any USB port on my PC, windows doesn't automatically download the required drivers for me to be able to use it. Does anyone have a suggestion of a way I could manually download the drivers onto my PC? Any other help would be also extremely useful. Furthermore, it may be useful to know that I am totally rubbish when it comes to overall PC knowledge.

 

Thanks

What Windows do you have?

Windows 10 has built-in drivers for Xbox 360 and Xbox One controllers, Windows 8/8.1 has Xbox 360 only IIRC.
