First, grab your Xbox 360 controller and connect it to your PC using a USB cable. Most Windows PCs will automatically install the necessary drivers, and you should be good to go. If that doesn’t work, you can download drivers from the official Xbox website. Happy gaming!

Get a wireless receiver for your Xbox 360 controller if you're using the wireless version. Plug it in, download the drivers from the Microsoft website, press the sync button on both the receiver and the controller, and you’re in business!

Got a wired controller? Just plug it in, and your PC will do the rest. No fuss, no muss.

You'll need an Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver if you're using a wireless controller. Just plug that baby into a USB port, install drivers, sync the controller, and you’re good to go! For wired controllers, simply plug it into a USB port, and Windows will install the drivers automatically.
