Can I use an Xbox 360 controller on a PC?

How can I use my xbox 360 controller on my pc?

  • I have read about it online people using their controller for pc games and other things, how can i do this?

  • Answer:

    The Xbox 360 controller uses a regular USB 2.0 connector. The only thing you are missing is the software. Microsoft has an article titled http://support.microsoft.com/kb/906347. In summary: Download controller software for your operating system http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/download.aspx?category=Gaming. Plug in your controller to a USB 2.0 slot. Make sure they are done in that order, the controller isn't supposed to be connected while the software installs.
