Hello,

Today I bought a PS4 controller as I wanted to use it for gaming on my PC. I have DS4 controller installed but it doesn't recognize the controller. I am using the micro usb cable that came with it to connect it to my PC but all it does is pulse an orange light on the back side of the controller. I have tried different USB ports. I have tried games but none work. I have tried resetting controller but no luck.

Any ideas on how to get this working?

Would appreciate a response :)

Try this little bit of software. It's what I used to get my PS3 nav sticks to work plus Joytokey if you want to replace your mouse and keyboard for games that don't support controller. They have an install option for PS4 controllers. I'm currently trying to work with Joytokey right now. Nav sticks don't work every well cause they are recognized as 2 controllers.
