well then it could be just a failed device unless the controller works on everything else you use it on or may have to go to the manufacture to see if theres a issue on there end with it ?

Error code 43 is generally an indication of failed or bad hardware. Some of these are also due to conflicting softwares on boot. Try the following steps.
- Clean boot of OS with only MS services on and check if the issue persists. http://www.thewindowsclub.com/what-is-clean-boot-state-in-windows
- From the device manager, right click on the controller and unisntall and reconnect it and wait for the Windows to detect and install the drivers and check.
- Just check if there's any way of doing a hardreset on the controller
- most basic, try a different USB port to check.
