    PS3 Controller on PC via Bluetooth Dongle

    I've done some searching and googling and my USB Bluetooth Dongle wont install. I'm trying to use the guide posted here: http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/forum.htm...187&howmany=50 and it references a driver called fbtusb.inf and the website it links to isnt there anymore. Any help would be great. Thanks!

    I used guides and apps on http://www.motioninjoy.com/ when I did it.

    I also use motioninjoy with my ps3 controller and a 2 buck bluetooth dongle. Should be able to find a driver on the forums and/or a guide to get it all setup.

    That BSOD error code is more than likely from outdated drivers.

    What guide did you end up using? motioninjoy?

    I could never get the bluetooth to work so i'm trying to get it to work via USB and everything works except the analog sticks. Any suggestions for that? I've installed LibUSB drivers, PPJoy, and BTSix (even though it keeps crashing and hasnt worked yet).

    Most likely having all of that shit together is causing it to fuck up. Wipe the slate clean first. I had no problem getting my ps3 controller to work via usb with the motionjoy link.

    A while back, when motionjoy first went from being unsigned to signed drivers it was giving some ppl, me included, problems with logitech keyboards / mice, that could only be fixed by a system restore. Not sure if it ever got fixed, but it's caused me not to reinstall them since i deleted them a couple months back.

    After you get rid of the conflicting drivers; install Motioninjoy by itself. Enable Test mode if you're on 64bit and then install the driver using the DS3 Tool.

    Go into DS3 Tool and click on Playstation 2 Controller then click Enable and Test Vibration. Your analogs and triggers should all work now. Just remember that you have to do this every time you start the computer for some weird reason.
