Hi , Sikander.

Well the DS3 was not designed to work natively on windows system, so some use drivers created by developers like Better DS3 or SCPtoolkit to install modified drivers to initialize PS3 controllers in Windows.

However, as it is not an official control, several driver ID errors can occur with official versions of these applications with the modified driver, there is also the issue of the Bluetooth Dongle that may not be compatible.

Generally, the SCP has been working better in your situation, I recommend you to test it.

Hope this helps.
