Can't Play Games with Controller without Freezing!

I've had this issue for a while.. I don't know whats happening or how to fix it, but when I play certain games using the controller support provided with Windows 10, I get frequent freezes and even some crashes. Games I've noticed this issue with as of late are Fallout 4 and recently Fortnite.

I know for sure this has something to do with my controller drivers or controller itself.

The issue itself is: following a crash or freeze, if my Wireless Xbox One controller is left on, My computer will beep and have a laggy cursor, nothing I click will do anything as if It's not recognizing input aside from beeping while clicking.

Issue does not occur at all if controller is off.

Nope, controller itself doesn't have issues. Computer lags and freezes while a game is running, mouse will beep when not clicking... It feels like an OS issue but I don't know.


Not my video, but this is an example of what happens https://youtu.be/YuolB3uESyA

If Anyone can provide anyhelp would be much apreciated almost every game is unplayable because of this. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Xbox one Controller drivers and this issue keeps returning.

Is this issue from the time you started using XBO controller or it happened recently?

I think it happens around the time the controller batteries get low. So it starts to cause the issues.
