Hello everyone i have a question regarding the xbox one controller on pc.
everything was working just fine till an hour ago.
when i play a game (ex assassin's creed 4) i can play it no problem with the xbox one controller. when i quit the game and go back to desktop, everything is still fine. as soon as i disconnect my xbox one controller the whole system crashes. nothing responds. when i press ctrl alt delete mouse responds but when pointer moves i can hear a beeping sound from my tv speekers.... and i have to force the computer off cause it won't shut down.
another problem i have is when playing tales from the borderlands. if i play with keyboard and mouse i get fps = 60. as soon as i launch the game with xbox controller my fps drop between 4-25 and the game gets super laggy.
the same problem occurs if i use the controller with wire or with the wireless adapter.
didn't have any problem till just an hour ago.
i'm thinking of formatting the pc cause it's driving me nuts.
any1 has a solution.
for the record i uninstalled the drivers from device manager. both wireless adapter and xbox controller. i had to deconnect the xbox controller to uninstalled cause if i kept it plugged the pc would still freeze.
thx for help

2016-03-09T06:26:36+00:00 What worked for me is just uninstalling KB3140768. Since I have a group policy in place that only notifies me about new windows updates and not auto-downloads/installs them this works just fine for me until MS fixes this ****.
This way I did not need to downgrade the controller and wireless is also working perfectly fine.

Check halo forums also. I just copied paste the solution from there. I still have no solution to play wireless. Dying light works perfectly with me after doing those steps.
