Not sure why you would want to gimp yourself by using one, but what sort of interface is it? I assume USB, correct?

Now now vectus you gotta remember there are less fortunate people out there.

I almost got one so I could play FIFA and NHL. It's hard with the keyboard.

should be plug and play. you on XP? look for drivers.
edit: just reread your post... you looking for profile. think they mean xbox/windows Live profile. they are free but its for games for windows live. no reason to have one unless the game requires it.

i use a 360 controller for racing/sports games on the pc.

it comes with drivers
thats why its for windows
and yes i have XP

**BigHub** · 12-28-09, 01:08 PM

I would of just plugged it in and then let windows recognize the device and install the drivers itself. Wouldn't of even used the CD or software it came with. That's just me though.

I think this is the answer you are looking for. You have to have an Xbox Live account (whether it is the paid subscription or not).
