I've gotten everything to work on how I wanted too. One more question, would an xbox live headset work with the 360 controller and the pc?

depends if the controller driver passes it though as a usb audio device or not.

if it does then yes it probably is possible to get it working youd have to change the audio device in sound and audio devices in control panel to the usb headset

thats if offcorse the driver for the controller passes it though as a usb audio device.
