Oh you will need the Xbox 360T Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows®
(http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/...gamingreceiver/) to get the official Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/...eel/default.htm) to work with Vista. Also the official Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel has force feedback and rumble. And its a realy good wheel. I love it. Shure its a little more money then the 3rd party ones but its worth it. I dont know if 3rd party 360 wheels works with Vista.

I'm using the Wireless Receiver and the Wireless Headset without any problems
whatsoever on my Vista 64-bit install. Sadly, the drivers that come with the Wireless Receiver device are for XP, which is a bit daft, however, you can download a Vista version from Microsoft's website. I assume the driver package will be the same for both wired and wireless XBox360 products. I use the Wireless Headset for Counterstrike: Source and it works like a charm. To find the drivers, try searching Microsoft for: Microsoft XBox 360 Accessories (this is the name of the folder installed by the drivers package). |

Windows can download the drivers automaticaly.
At least it did that when I used a wired 360 controller in XP. I'm guessing the "look for drivers online" function is available in Vista to.
