I've read that I can link my wireless 360 controllers (Game pad and wheel) to my PC as it has a built in bluetooth receiver.

I've downloaded the software from the Microsoft site but I'll be jiggered if I can get the two to mate. Anyway, everytime I turn on the controller, it turns on the xBox and every time I turn off the xBox, the controller turns off.

Can't seem to get a suitable answer on the web so far.

Edit: Seem to have answered my own question and found out I need to but something else to go with the controllers.

Not having looked at connecting to my PC, but try disconnecting the power of your xbox, then turn on the controller, usually works when trying to connect a controller to a different console.

Then I guess you will have to pair by pressing the button on the button on top of the controller.

Good Luck!
