Ok a lot of your statements don't make sense, but I won't bother with any of that.
Here is what to do.
Download this:
http://viking360.com/downloads/thevikin ... _setup.exe
Install it.
Done. You have the new software. No need to do anything else.
To update the controller's firmware download these files:
http://viking360.com/downloads/thevikin ... .8.7.3.bin
http://www.viking360.com/downloads/thev ... dater2.exe
Close out of the viking software and open the firmwareupdater2. Then plug your controller in. Use a different USB port if it isn't working.
Update the controller with the newest firmware.
REMEMBER:
BE SURE TO BEGIN THE UPDATE PROCESS WITH THE MACRO SOFTWARE *CLOSED* AND THE BATTERIES *REMOVED* FROM YOUR CONTROLLER. Then follow this tutorial video EXACTLY:

Your controller should be updated.
The software should be updated.
There you go.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
If your controller continues to not be recognized by your computer, restart it.
Then take the batteries out of your controller. Make sure they are fresh - brand new.
Hold start on the controller - batteries out. Keep holding start - put in the batteries. You should get P1 and P4 LEDs in pink.
Attach the Play and Charge kit to controller. Open the software. Not firmware updater. Plug in the play and charge kit into cpu with controller connected. Wait 10 seconds. It should recognize your controller.
If not let me know.
