My Acme game controller keeps vibrating whenver i put it in a usb drive in my PC.

[Veal Valentin]

Hello,

After playing a while with the ACME GA02 game controller, I plugged it in my pc to try and play co op mode in Dungeon Siege III with my fiancee.

When i was already in-game I plugged in the device and ever since, whenever i plug it into any usb drive from my pc it constantly vibrates. The only function it has left is the led changing buttons in the center of the game controller.

I've tried re-installing the driver 13 times and and it has no effect.

The weird thing is, the PC seems to have stopped from recognizing its presence. It stopped appearing in the devices section inside the control panel.

I'm running on a Windows 7 Service Pack 1 x64.

Does anyone have any ideea what i should do in this case?

Thank you very much!

i think you should be happy it's not blowing up.

seriously though, sounds like it's dead. probably shouldn't have bought this whipped dog of a gamepad from a company with a totally legit and not funny in the least name like ACME; i mean for some reason i can't quite put my finger on, that name doesn't really howl quality products to me.

Figured as much. Honestly, how could i not buy a product whos company's name first appeared in Looney Tunes.

The bottom line for this device is that its dead right?

Im gonna try out the PS3 controller on my pc, see if the emulators out there are good for something.

Thanks for the help!]

yeah.. it's probably dead... and sorry for the jokes. i couldn't help it (i actually looked up your game pad just to see if there was an actual company named ACME out there... at first i thought you were pulling my leg)
