All you need is a normal 360 controller

The 360 controller connects via USB anyway. The one packaged as "for Windows" is simply a normal wired controller with a Windows driver CD. XP will get the driver off Windows Update anyway, so you don't need it. Rumours are that they're releasing something or other to allow you to use the wireless controllers with Windows.

Yes. They use standard USB connections and when Windows asks for a driver, tell it to look online.
