Using PS3 Controller on PC for FFXI

[isys]

Both have been answered in this thread. You either need a wired 360 controller, or your computer needs to have Bluetooth, and the drivers mentioned above

I seen this topic and I'm wondering how do I get my ps3 or 360 controller to work on my Pc? I hooked my ps3 controller up to my pc with the cord you use to recharge your controller but it just blinks. Any ideas?

The charging cable for 360 wireless controller merely gives power to battery, the controller is still using wireless for sending data (probably the PS3 works the same). For the xbox controller there is a receiver for PC (which works with the wireless headset too), but you won't be able to get the triggers to work.

Could someone please post a guide on how to do this? I'm not a PC tech geek so I'm not fond with all this but I'm having issues and cant seem to configure the buttons and what not.
