No Game Controller Found in USB Ports

Post by Rydema »

Good Evening everyone!

So I've had built my own and literally I have checked everything but the software isn't picking up my xbox one controller.

Code: Select all

global option -l with value `log.txt'
global option -c with value `XOnePadUsb.xml'
controller #1: option -p with value `COM1'
now reading arguments for controller #2
status flag is set
subpos flag is set
force_updates flag is set
auto-grab flag is set
GIMX 7.15 x86_64
Windows 10 (or later) x64
Kernel version: 10.0 (18362)
GIMX adapter detected, controller type is: XOnePad.
src/gusb.c:865 claim_device: libusb_open failed with error: Other error
Error: No game controller was found on USB ports.
I have tried two different xbox controllers and plenty of different cables but I can't get the damn thing fire through. I have even gone the lengths in trying it through raspberry pi 2 only to yield the same results! Help :(

Hi, are you using the official controllers aka ones that came with the Xbox? You could also try using a different config.

You should also try restarting your computer

maybe you could delete gimx and reinstall, because from what I read on other help pages it was usually a problem with a file.
Sorry if that doesn’t help, I only know the basics.

Hmm, it does need to be an official controller because gimx wasn’t coded (yet) for 3rd party controllers, you should try and figure out if you have an official controller and if not you can buy a second hand one off of eBay for about $20-$30. If you do have an official controller then I have absolutely no idea, you will have to wait until someone more qualified checks this out :lol:

The drivers that go into the system come up as Xbox One Controller - the only thing that makes me thing its fake is because under the battery cover theres no stickers at all

This is the controller Link to EBAY
