Download a program called MotioninJoy, for starters.

ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY DO NOT USE MOTIONINJOY

Why do people insist on telling people that installing a Chinese Trojan is somehow acceptable just so you can get a controller working

Use SCP instead as it is decidedly 1000% safer to use

Open Big Picture and configure the gamepad there.

At the very least you will need to download and install a driver to make the game pad work. ps3 game pads are not windows plug and play without a drivers or a program to get it running.

i think you have to like disable something in a crazy restart mode... advanced restart.

try this...:
a. Press the Win + C and click on PC settings.
b. Switch over to the “Update & recovery” section.
c. Then click on the Recovery option on the left hand side.
d. Once selected, you will see an advanced startup section appear on the right hand side. You will need to click on the “Restart now” button.
e. Once your Computer has rebooted you will need to choose the Troubleshoot option.
f. Then head into Advanced options.
g. Then Startup Settings.
h. The computer will restart.
I. Here you will be given a list of startup settings that you can change. The one we are looking for is “Disable driver signature enforcement”. To choose the setting, you will need to press the F7 key.

then motion in joy or scp will be working with the drivers and windows will no longer stop you from downloading these drivers properly

sooo yaaa hope this helps :D
