I've owned a wired Xbox 360 controller for some time which has worked fine with Windows 7 and recently decided to replace it as it's become worn. I can tell the new controller powers when plugged in because the LED ring flashes several times (all 4 lights) but nothing else happens. The notification sound for a connected USB device does not trigger nor does the controller appear in the device manager, the Microsoft Xbox Accessories program, or joy.cpl; all of which is contrary to the way the old controller works. It's different from other posts I see as there is no error message of any kind, just a total non-recognition of this controller as opposed to the older one which works properly.
I've tried some solutions such as uninstalling and reinstalling drivers for the controller but nothing has had any effect.
Both controllers are marked E-C015-05-4542 (B) on the back leading me to believe they should be functionally identical.
I'm leaning toward deciding the new controller is defective.
EDIT:
I have since tried another specimen of new controller and had the exact same problem so it's very unlikely to be due to hardware malfunction.
I also had the opportunity to plug the new controller into another Windows 7 machine as well as a Windows 8 machine to see what would happen; on both machines the controller was detected and started installing drivers.
