xbox 360 controllers won't connect

[Matt172]

any ideas? neither of my controllers will connect, tried replacing batteries, but all I get went I switch on is all four lights flashing on the guide button on the controller and no connect.

Have tried reconnect button but nothing happens

isn't there a little unmarked button on them somewhere which you press to connect them up?

Are you sure you're not making any silly mistakes. I only say so because I had the same issue, thought I knew what I was doing and still had trouble. Had not done it for a while and must of been doing something wrong.

Followed this and all worked:

that was the guide I was originally using, tried it about 20 times last night to no avail, thought it was my battery packs so bought new batteries. Tried again today...nothing. Just done it again now and it seems to have worked but took ages for it to connect.

All sorted then thanks chaps

Not being able to rack up multikills does this to a mans brain. Xbox panic ; )

Glad to hear all is sorted.
