Why is my controller not responding or experiencing stick drift when connected to the PS3?

First, use only an official PS2 wired controller—third-party ones are unsupported and may cause drift or connectivity problems. If yours is original, unplug the adapter, try another PS3 USB port, and restart the console.

Can I use this adapter for my PS1 controller or Guitar Hero accessories?

No, this adapter is specifically designed for standard Original PS2 wired controllers only. It does not support PS1 controllers, Guitar Hero guitars.

I connected it to my PC, but it says the driver doesn't work. How do I fix this?

PC typically need a driver for controller recognition. Antivirus software may block third-party USB drivers. Temporarily disable your antivirus or add the driver to its exceptions/whitelist, then reinstall.

Will this allow me to play my PS2 console using a new PS3 controller?

No, this is a strict one-way adapter. It only allows you to use older PS2 controllers on a newer PS3 console or PC. It does not work in reverse.
