you say wired controller but plug and play kit together, if you have a wireless controller you can't do jack with the plug and play kit connected to the PC bar power the controller and you pressing the guide button which makes it flash is just it looking for an xbox to sync up with. that cable simple doesn't connect anything other than 5v of usb power into the battery pack, sorry mate.
edit this is the wired controller you want for use with the pc, note the back is just the cable directly into the controller and no battery pack.

then you need one of these guys here, it plugs into any usb port on your pc and then your pc will be able to pick up the signals from a wireless 360 controller and play perfectly with it, they're can be a little bit costly but gaming with a wireless 360 pad for certain pc games can be really worth getting one :)

thanks!! really appreciate all the help I'm getting, truly :D you're really going out of your way helping me find information an all =)
I think I'll just buy a 360 controller with a wire attached to it though ^^

that was what I ended up doing as well, found one inside a local pawn shop and paid 10 euros for it. just keep an eye out if you have any similar shops to you, the things are common enough in places where people would trade in older models of the 360 and pawn shops often end up taking in the left overs after peoples systems have died to age so they're happy to sell off the bits for any cash.
