If its on while your trying to use a ps3 controller on your pc, its not going to work.

Try turning off the controller when your ps3 is on, by pressing the ps button then on the ps3 go down to turn off controller. (you might need 2 controllers as this may turn back on some time later)

Try using Xpadder.com once you are able to connect it you can use this free program to bind any keys to your controllers (mouse...etc).

Hi!

I've tried both the driver posted in this thread and that sixaxisdriver.exe. Both worked on my PC but both of them assigned the triggers to buttons. I want to play racing games with this gamepad so I need the triggers to be assigned to axes.

Are there any drivers that assign the triggers to axes or have the function of remapping the sticks, triggers and buttons?

Ok. May have found a simple Solution to some problems that people had before, don't know if anyone's already found this problem and posted it, but hey, why not.

4 LED's light up flashing. Ignore it, it doesn't matter.

Controller's recognised in "Game Controllers" menu in Control Panel. Try to press buttons? No Reactions.

Now, did you install the Lib Filter thing? I think this might've been a BIG MISTAKE.

When you're in the Game controller properties and looking at the button pictures and the axis things, open the Task Manager, find the "lib-something" Process and END it.

Bam. Started getting reactions from the controller.

Peace out.

It's the drivers from this post...

The links no longer work... Like I said, could somebody please upload them?

**EDIT**

Ok, I did some googling, and found a link to the Japanese Sixaxis driver...

After spending an hour with the thread starters driver, and getting no results, I tried this one, and it worked immeadiately... Download it now... Before you ask, it only works on USB, and Sixaxis functions don't work.

Bless you, bless you, bless you. I wrestled for an hour with sixaxis_en and couldn't get the buttons to respond in the Control Panel. This Just Worked. Awesome!

The controller won't work on vista.
I havn't tried the Japanese driver yet...
If anyone can show me that I am wrong, I will be very very happy.

After about an hour i realized that if i press the ps button while running ps3sixaxis_en.exe it quickly flashed ps3 controller recognized or something like that then bam it worked. I had redone every step 20 times and this is what did it... hope this helps
