So this is only happening with your PS4 controller or with other devices? Your optical drive was plugged in via USB or SATA?įor your PS4 controller, you do need to download a tool for it to work, it's called DS4-Tool. I'm usually okay at working things out like this, but this one really has me stumped, so if anyone has anything at all that might help I'd appreciate it. It showed up on the BIOS and Disk Manager though, so when I changed the associated drive letter it worked fine.Īlso I'm dual booting as a hackintosh, but when I boot into Yosemite the exact same thing still happens. Even after putting discs in it wouldn't come up with any prompts about what to do. It was wired correctly, had power going to it and could hear it reading discs when I put them in, but for some reason wouldn't show up ANYWHERE on my computer. I had a similar problem with an optical drive I installed a few days ago. I know it's nothing silly like the cable, or USB port as they've all been tested and work with other devices. And I know you have to download software to make the DS4 work, but even when I installed that and plugged the controller in I still had nothing. All of my drivers are up to date, including the ones for my motherboard, as well as other general system updates. No noise to tell me my controller's been connected, nothing in the device manager or devices and printers, or even anything to tell me the device isn't recognised or that there's a problem.

When I plug it in the light comes on and appears to charge/work, but nothing happens on my system. Yesterday I bought a Dualshock 4 controller to play a few a games on my PC.
