I have an alienware laptop, would this actually give ample power to a PS3 controller? or will it just say its Driver cannot be installed, cuz its to weak?

Had my son try it to answer this question, yes, it works. Now he uses this device to charge multiple controllers at once & can do so while playing, plugged into the PS3 or computer. We are quite impressed with this device actually.

If the harddrive you have has the default setting which the driver setup driver of the PS3 can install, it should be no problem. However, there are hard drive manufacture who utilize difference universal baseline default drivers. I bet it is a about 70% percent chance of success. However, if a person who does not have the credentials such as bachelor degree in this field and etc...it drops to 40/60.

No bro, power supply is only for HDMI kit, I curently have used it for a couple of hours an connected a ps3 controller to play some emulators on my Galaxy note 2 an it didn't charge my phone or my ps3 controller. I hope this answer your question.

I use that Adapter mainly for PS2 controllers in Windows 7. It might help you, but I would first try Motion in Joy and/or SCP DS3

The playstation wouldn't recognize the usb device. This device is just a cheap way of getting ps2 controllers to work with your pc.

This one should do the trick. It's 150w and 19.5v. It's great for my power hungry alienware. Good luck!

Im about 80 percent sure it wont work for your laptop, because I tried to connect my xbox 360 to my laptop but nothing showed, however I didnt try it on my PS4 but Im sure it wont work however its perfect for connecting it to your Monitor,

The previous commentor is correct. This laptop is limited ... but it is a fun little tool. Hope you choose to get it and pursue adapter options.

My experience with it is that it doesn't work..period. I would go with a different controller.

After buying them for PS3, I was unable able to get them to work. I did a lot of research and found they do not have a driver compatibility standard required for PS3. Just as an fyi, I am an IT professional.

It's a USB connection so I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work as long as you had the driver.

Yes, I just tested it by connecting the receiver base to a wall charger and connecting it to my computer with a 3.5m cord instead of via USB. There is a switch on the front of the base that says console<----->PC Gaming, make sure its switched to Console before powering it on otherwise it won't use the correct input you want.

I have only ever used it with my pc and ps4. The best advice I can offer for the ps3 is to look at the official support. Hope it helps.http://support.turtlebeach.com/entry/830517337/

It charges my Standard Sony PS3 Controller just fine as well couple knock-off PS3 Controllers that I have. I have not tried it on a PS3 Slim Controller but as i believe it should work as long as the slim uses a Mini B 4 pin cable. The cable may also be defective if you are having issues.

Controllers will never recognize this devise for some reason on my desktop, and 3 laptops. eSATA is the ultimate solution faster 2x and much more reliable They promise to revive all usb 3.0 devises and controllers .It means that new 2015 PC's will have no issues on motherboards .USB 3.0 is very new to the manufacturers (they trying to sell older hardware first :) Forget about this gadget

I just run a laptop through it at my weekly trivia night so I'm not sure what your specific situation is, but my guess would be that you would need a separate power source for any other piece of hardware since there is no power supply required (or any place to plug one in) for the ART DTI Hum Eliminator. it just sits there & works its' magic.

I'm sorry. Actually it probably won't work since you need to use the CD to install the driver. You might check with the manufacturers web site to see if you can download the drivers and software. I'll bet you could. But I would check it out first before buying.
