Battlefield 4 Xbox 360 Wired Controller on Windows Server 2012 R2

Question

I'm running windows server 2012 r2 and want to use my Battlefield 4 Xbox 360 controller (seen here) to play games. However when I plug it in the driver does not install. I know the computer detects the device because it is listed in device manager, however device manager claims it can't find the driver for it and I can't find the driver anywhere.

Answer 1

Microsoft does not publish a driver for the XBox 360 Controller for Windows Server 2012. At the time of writing, they offer drivers for Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. It's possible that Windows 8 has built-in support for the controller.
