Dualshock 3 PC problem

[Coady709]

Hey I was wondering how to hook up my ps3 controller to my PC for epsxe, Ive tried EVERYTHING and tha only thing all these programs and tutorials have gotten me was a usb drive not working. Anyway if someone could help me it would be much appreciated Thanks.

Are you directly connecting it with USB or using WinDS3?

[Coady709]

USB and ive tried almost every driver for it and none of them have worked for me while they seem to work for every one else which is kind of irritating :/

Which OS you running? If it's Win7 64-bit, you're going to have to learn how to bypass the driver-signing issue for most of the apps that enable the DualShock3 to pair up with the PC.

Yeah it's Win7 64-Bit and i did do that and it still dosent work i really don't know whats wrong with it :/

Easy way: Get a xbox360 pad

Hard way: What driver are you using? I ran into this same problem trying to use a ds3 on win7 64x. The only way I was able to get it working was by putting my pc into test mode/enable unsigned drivers (same thing i think...) and using MotionInJoy's ds3 tool and driver to configure my pad.

This link (if you haven't tried this already) is very helpful in setting it. Make sure you follow each step carefully. Running each install as admin is important or it won't work properly. The part about permanently disabling driver signing was patched by microsoft though (iirc) so you will still have to disable driver signing each time you boot your pc.
