    This product works fine in Windows XP Vista and 7. I have moved it from computer to computer and the drivers always work. The only issue I have with it, which is reported by many people, is that you have to be sure the usb port provides enough power to get the RF transceiver to work. On my main PC for instance it will not work from the front panel headers, only the rear USB ports which I can specify to receive more power in BIOS. I generally am not a fan of M$ but I concede that this is the best PC controller you can get if you play games for Windows, several of which only support XBox 360 controllers made by Microsoft. I would bet this is because games now get written for the 3 major platforms (360 PS3 and PC) at the same time, and additional controllers are an afterthought. I sure wish Sony would release a similar bundle for a PS3 controller that worked with PC, because a PS3 controller is easier on the hands.

    What can I say, plug the reciver in the usb port of your computer and wireless heaven anywhere in the room, even with my Xbox right next to it, there is no conflict, I love it.

    Found the controller at local store, but the usb adapter is only available online, the price for this item is less than i could get the controller alone.

    My experience was the same as soem of the other one star reviews, worked fairly well for a few months, and then died. Not worth the price, I would not reccomend this at all!
