I was playing ZSNES with a friend online like I always do and all of a suden my controller just stopped working. Now it works for a bit then it stops, then it works again for likr 30 seconds then stops again.

Anybody know what the fuck is up or what I can do? Keep in mind that I am computer retarded.

My guess is something's wrong with the controller's USB adapter. Try something else in that slot. If it works fine without interruption, time to buy a new controller. If not, it could be the port itself. I doubt it's a software issue other than ZSNES.

Yeah, you tried plugging anything else in that usb slot yet?

You tried plugging your controller in a different slot?

You tried your controller on a different pc?

You tried your controller on a different program?

You gotta narrow the hrough process of elimination, bro. I know it's "computer nerd" shit, but it makes shit a lot fucking easier.

Yeah I took apart my controller and it turns out that ne of the wires was snapped. So I snapped and broke it some more.

Thanks to both of you for the help. I did try everything you guys said before I posted this topic. I say i'm retarded at computers but I mean I am retarded compared to most people on here. I am a nerd to my friends.
