Hey better yet, instead of dealing with all this splicing of wires and worry about someday comming loose.. Just buy the new 360 controller, its already a USB. and its microsoft, so windows automatically finds its dirvers. and better looking by the way..

the original xbox controller's are nothing more than usb controllers. those 4 controller ports in the front of the xbox are just usb ports modified slightly to be used for controllers.
