Hey, I've heard that you could connect your 360 wireless controller to your PC. And all I wanna know is, how can you do that? I'm running a Windows Vista.

You need a Wireless Gaming Receiver.

Man, I've tried to get that to work with my newer computer, but something weird keeps happening with the camera zoom and it makes the game unplayable (at least after the first few levels).

It's confusing to me how it wouldn't automatically turn on your 360. I guess you just sync it to the receiver and then re-sync it to your 360 later.

You should be able to. When using controllers with the computer, you're just remapping mouse and keyboard functions to the controller.

May I recommend a Logitech ChillStream instead? They feel just like a 360 controller, have a built-in fan to keep your hands cool, run off USB and cost just as much as that 360 receiver.
