Would this controller work for my laptop that has Windows 8.1? If not do you have any suggestions on a controller that will?

I don't see why not. I have Windows 7 and it works fine. 7 and 8 are close enough.

Yes, It worked for me with 64bit Windows 8. I used it with an old X10 controller.

Yes, it works on Windows 8.1. That is the Operating System I used to set it up.

Yes it works with Windows 8.1 after I received the right cable. I received the wrong cable from them on the first shipment.

When I bought mine, it was a gift to someone else - and think it was so complicated that he never even got it working in XP. Win 8.1? Pretty new OS - may be worth checking a Belkin Nostromo SppedPad N52 User's Forum - I assume there's one out there somewhere. Try an XP-rated game in Win 8.1 - if it runs, the controller might, too.

It works just fine with Windows 7 without installing anything so it will probably work for Windows 8.1. To get all the functionality you're supposed to install the drivers off the cd, but I never have. As is, it does everything I want and works the same way I'm used to. I use it mostly for uploading/downloading from my phone and talking to my Lego robot which uses com port emulation across the Blue Tooth connection.

I just got a new laptop with windows 8.1 and it works fine thus far. It should work okay.

Hello, this I don't know. I know it works fine with windows 8, with 8.1 I can't answer. I don't have the 8.1. I'm sorry I can't be more help. Have a blessed day! Deborah

I am using mine (the orange version) with Windows 8.1 and it works very well. Instantly found it when paring and connects right away when turned on. No noticeable lag after it sitting for a while either.

It should, It works on windows 7. Once you plug the 360 "WIRED" controller into your computer, it will instruct you to download drivers for the controller. Also check the game requirements. You can ask the question to your computer and it will connect to many answers. I don't have games on my 8.1, but when I attached to 360 wired controller it gave the same message as my windows 7.

Yup. This controller works with the Xbox 360 and Windows computers. This controller will not work with the Xbox One, however.

I started out with Windows XP when I first got this. I just bought a Windows 8.1 system and it had no trouble recognizing the controller.

This is a USB joystick, so will it work with windows 3.1, I highly doubt it.
