ps3 sixaxis controller lost connection and wont connect

[Amitgujaran]

Does anyone find out why the controller drops connections at regural times? If am playing any games and trying to quit it by pressing the middle button of the PS controller, it will not quit but rather allow X button to go back although the D-Pad works without any issues. So can anyone help me out and tell me why ps3 sixaxis controller lose connection and wont connect? Thanks

I think you need to install the driver for your sixaxis controller of Playstation, read up more here: How to use Sixaxis controls on your PC

What you need to do is to sync it and try to connect the pad via USB to the system once. The only time I have ever had to re-sync is when I took a pad to a buddy's house to play on his system, then brought it back home. As for this signal dropout mentioned, I nearly always play wireless and haven't noticed this once.

It may just be a very faulty controller otherwise if its your PS3 then you may have some bigger issues. Let us know what happens with your new controller. Apparently there are problems with the sixaxis controllers. The SIXAXIS controllers will lose their connection at random times and have to resynchronize (takes about 3-4 seconds).
