XBCD drivers for Xbox 360 gamepad
I am running Windows 7 RC (7100) x64 and trying to install XBCD. I've been an XBCD user since the 360 came out and ppl were hacking drivers together. Never had problems under XP.
I'm really liking Windows 7 RC so far, and would like to use it as my main OS. However I need to use XBCD because I cannot play racing games with the default MS drivers. I must have seperate trigger axis and rumble/deadzone control.
I tried installing 0.2.6 drivers but nothing works. I install it, but the XBCD util doesnt start. No errors or anything it just doesnt work. The control panel entry doesnt work either. I cant update drivers for HID/Xbox driver in device manager. Under device manager, I have HID-Compliant Game Controller and USB Input Device which says the location is Xbox 360. I dont know which one I'm supposed to try to update.
I realize vista/7 has driver signing. I am in Test mode thanks to a util called Driver Signature Enforcement Overider Tool. But no matter what I simply cannot install this driver. Either Im not doing it right (no clear instructions available) or it simply doesnt work under Windows 7 (or Vista x64 either).
So what can I do? Is anyone running Windows 7 x64 with XBCD? I really need to install this driver because I'm considering downgrading to XP just to have it, its that important for me. It would be so nice if MS would simply release drivers with built in deadzone settings and make the triggers on seperate axis. Then all this wouldnt be necessary. But until then I'd love to figure this all out. I'm really like Windows 7 and would like to keep it. Thanks for any help!
