I found the problem,
This is what I did to get it to work, I pressed the PS button when PS3 was on, told it to turn off, then the controller lights went out, then I plugged the controller into my computer, opened the game controller and it works.
However, whatever you do, when that PS3 goes out, don't touch the PS button at all. That's what messes it up. The lights for 1-4 should never be on.
That's how I got it to work for myself at least.
Now that the buttons work in the game controllers, that's cool, how do I set the buttons to do stuff though?
