Re: XBox 360 Wireless controller for PC.

Got both wired and wireless xbox controllers. Both work fine for most games but have occasional problems with the wireless. In Assassins Creed for instance the wired works perfectly can re-map all buttons to whatever you want but with the wireless it doesn't recognise the triggers so you can't map anything to them and it seemed to think the X, Y, A and B buttons were the wrong way around.

However in other games, such as Prototype, everything is perfect.

I've not been able to find a way to fix this, my guess is that it's not a problem with the controller and wireless adapter set up but the indivdual games having not been implemented to correctly interprate the information from the adapter. In which case the only hope is if the game gets patched :(

I could be wrong so if you find a way to fix it let me know :)
