xbox 360 controller not recognized on PC (Chrome Browser)

hi all, while i am waiting for my stadia hardware to be delivered, i wanted to use my old x360 controller. when i connect it to the computer (windows 10, up to date) it is recognized in windows and listed in the device list, but it doesn´t do anything. when i navigate to stadia.com and hit that controller icon, it just tells me to plug in the controller. any ideas what i am doing wrong here? thanks!

Hello, 

when I was in the menu and outside of the game, I had to use the DPad. Have you tried launching a game with the mouse and then try the controller? This is what I did for Destiny 2 and it worked.

The controller doesn't work in the UI, but kind of works in the game. I have my wired xbox 360 controller connected and it kind of works in games. I just posted the problem I am having with the controller in the game. That controller icon gives me the same message as well, but works partially in game.

@Borvish : I'm not having any major issues with using a wireless XBox 360 Controller in conjunction with a XBox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows running on Windows 10.

But for the initial landing page and that navigation in the UI is pretty much limited to the D-Button and the A button, and anything else beyond that is impossible, once a game loads up e.g. Destiny 2, then I have no issues running the game and have yet to find any limitations with this configuration.

Screenshots and clips need to be triggered via a keyboard as there is no suitable key assigned to the XBox 360 controller, likewise exiting a game relies on using the keyboard too, but in the grand scheme of things not a major issue at this point as far as I can see.

 

Kudos appreciated if deserved.

Similar issue. Win 10 fully up to date, Latest Chrome. Cannot get the game to recognise an old Xbox 360 controller USB - wired.  It does appear in the Control panel but using the 'xbox' button does nothing. All 4 quadrants just keep flashing.

Any suggestions?
