Super easy! If it's wired, just plug it into a USB port. Windows will auto-install the driver. If it's wireless, grab an Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver and sync it up!

Wired controllers are plug-and-play via USB. For wireless, you'll need the Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for PC. Sync it up like you would with an Xbox.

Forget wireless – just use a wired controller. Simpler, no extra hardware needed.
