PS2 -> USB Adapter?

fatherb · April 24th, 2008

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is a Playstation 2 to USB adapter that supports the Logitech Cordless Controllers? (PN 963455-0403 or PN 863239-0000). The current adapter I am using (which is a couple years old) doesn't seem to make a connection between the controller and receiver as the receiver light continually flashes but never syncs up no matter what I try.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Well it has to do with the fact that the controller your using is wireless. The software drivers that come with the converter are not designed to handle wireless gamepads.

The hardware is fine, but you'll have to code your own drivers. Not even the famed xbcd Xbox controller drivers work with wireless controllers even though Squall and others have tried putting their minds to getting it to.

So unfortunately you'll either have to get a wireless PC gamepad or settle for hooking up a wired ps2 gamepad to the adapter.

Thanks for your reply, maybe someone will come up with drivers eventually, until then, wired it is

Thanks again!
