    Is this possible? Can the 360 Controller play with the original Halo on PC? I can't get it to work!

    My Airflo gamepad worked with the original halo. That's just weird that the 360 pc controller doesn't work with it.

    You will need third-party drivers to play any games which don't have the "Games For Windows" label.

    Well, I have the controller but everytime I start up Halo for the PC the game exits out by itself before I can play. What do I do? I installed the driver and because of the driver it is why the game closes. Any ideas?
