Unable to pair Xbox 360 Controller for windows
-
@megahertz What about enter on your controller, that you setup?
-
@retroprogrammer
The only controller I can setup is the usb keyboard I have plugged in and hitting enter on that does nothing -
@megahertz Just check if you have followed everything properly here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Xbox-360-Controller

@megahertz when you had setup the keyboard did you make "Enter" on your keyboard "A" on Retropie as "A" is enter in Retropie?

Does it work :-0

How do I do that? I enter all the commands I want to use on the keyboard and get to the end, highlight ok, try pressing Enter and nothing happens.
There is no option for an 'enter' key in the setup I am seeing -
What he means is if you look at a basic 4 button gamepad such as an SNES controller(or even an NES controller), the 'A' button in Retropie is usually used to 'choose' a selection (i.e. what 'enter does on a keyboard in a normal OS or command line) but in the Retropie gui that all depends on how you set up your keyboard.
To choose/activate the 'OK' prompt, you need to use whatever key on the keyboard you chose as 'A' and to go backwards out of a menu you need to use whatever key you chose as 'B'.
You say you built the image but do you mean you just downloaded the one from here?:

As far as the xbox360 controller goes, if you are using the Retropie latest sd card image then once you verify the controller has synced to the usb adapter then it should just be a matter of holding down a button ( I use the green on out of habit ) and it's good to go. Xbox drivers are supported out of the box with the official image.

That's the thing, I cannot get the usb receiver to sync with the controller. I am using the latest image from this site, however when I switch on the pi I am unable to sync the controller to the receiver. I press the button on the receiver and also try holding it down and I get nothing, no lights, nothing.

I think I may have worked it out. I think my receiver for my controller might have died.

@megahertz Nice!
