I have a PS3 controller and would like to use it on my pc to play games. I also have the usb charger cord which i assume i need to set it up with.

THANKS SOOOO MUCH. 10 pts for best answer and thanks in advance.

Heres just one thing to get it strait first of all. almost all PC games that say (controller compatible) does not work with a ps3 controller. They are, however compatible with Xbox controllers (microsoft controller, i wonder why?)

alright now that you know about that, time to go into what you're probably asking for.

you may use a program called "motioninjoy" in order to help connect the PS3 controller to be recognized as a device that can otherwise be utilized (like a macro)

the steps include

Download the program
Install the program
plug your controller in
Run the program
press the middle button to recognize if it hasn't
use the program

motionjoy is a program that works with either the usb or bluetooth parts of the ps3 controller so you can use it to emulate an xbox360 controller on your computer. It's extremely easy to set up if you just google it and then follow the instructions.
