Wired Xbox 360 Controller/PC Connection Problem

Alright, the problem is that every time I plug in my controller into the
PC, it'll work until you start doing something that interacts with the
controller, e.g. play a game. That's when all four quadrants start
flashing and then goes blank and I lose the connection but, oddly
enough, both the control panel and device manager says that it still is
work properly and the Xbox 360 Accessories Status also indicates that it
is still working.

The controller used to work perfectly (I could play a game for a couple
of hours) couple of weeks ago until now. My other wired xbox controller
works perfectly with the computer; no problem whatsoever. It's just this
one. Both controller are of the exact brand,a Gamestop controller, and
also this controller works fine when it's plug into the Xbox 360; it's
just the PC.

Before posting, I've been searching everywhere on google and everywhere
here and there seems to be nobody with the same problem as me. I also
have try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver multiple times and
that didn't get me anywhere.

Your device has electronic and mechinical parts in it and most likely it
is failing or otherwise broken. If you have a warranty the company may
replace it, however if not you need to buy a new one.
