You are using a Wired Controller and not a Wireless Controller with a
USB charger? If it's the Wireless one, the USB Charger doesn't offer
any connectivity but as the system detects a power drain on the USB
port, it runs the Add Hardware Wizard.
You need to download them from Microsoft.

| There aren't any drivers to "install" that I know of for the controller.
Unplug it, use another slot (front) while the Xbox 360 is off, and start the
360 again.

(for Windows XP SP2 systems) is available through Windows/Microsoft Update.
