Question: PS5 Controller Not Detected?
Question: PS5 Controller Not Detected?
Today, unexpectedly, my PC fails to detect my PS5 controller when connected via USB. I've never experienced such problems before. I've attempted various solutions: using the Windows Troubleshooter, switching the USB cable, testing different ports, disconnecting other devices, and resetting the controller. Nothing resolved the issue. The controller lights up orange three times each time I plug it in. If anyone has advice on how to fix this so Windows can recognize the device, I'd really appreciate it. Otherwise, I might have to purchase a new controller. Thanks!
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
Have you tried tethering the culprit to a donor system to rule out a fault controller or that the issue is with your platform alone? Have you tried working with other USB ports on your platform, to rule out a faulty port on your system? Speaking of system, you forgot to list your specs to the build. Please list them like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
BIOS version for your motherboard? If you're on Windows 10, please mention the version(not edition) of the OS.
