Hi all,
Is there a way to use the XBox commands on my computer - usb adapter, or
other?

Thanks

Do you mean the Xbox controller? If so then yes there is. You can get the
cable adapter from lik-sang.com, and I believe there are several tutorials
at xbox-scene.com on how to make your own. You will need to download the
drivers, in order for it to work with your computer.

Ah, I get it now. The word "command" along with usb had me stumped on
responding. It might be a translation thing.

Yep, it's a cultural thing. The word for Xbox controller in French is
mannette de jeu xbox, or mannette of play. I'm assuming it means manner,
but I'll ask my wife later on.

Speaking of my wife, she often refers to the controller as the remote. So I
guess it depends on your cultural background as well as gender.
