xbox problems

[Dave xxxx]

my sons x box reports on screen that the controller has been disconnected and needs reconnecting

this happens every few minutes it asks you to re connect and press? a

the controller has in fact not been disconnected and as this was happening all the time I thought the controller
was broken

I bought a brand new replacement and the xbox still keeps reporting controller disconnected

any idea what's wrong?

[Thoth]

does it

do the

same thing

in every port?

I'd check out the controller port on the Xbox.

I'd swear you're the brother I never had. I though it was funny, but also
thought "I'm such a jerk."

I"ve seen that happen quite a bit with non-Microsoft brand controllers. Are
you using the real deal controllers or some cheap crap?
