Do you have the wireless adapter that connects with the computer?

Did you hit the sync button on the controller and the USB connector at the same time?

If the lights are flashing at the same time, that means the batterey is low.

If the lights are flashing in a circle pattern, that means the controller is not syncing up to the wireles transciever.

Which is why I got the wired one :)

I can't stand wireless gaming stuff.

when i turn it on, it flashes quickly then it flashes in normal mode (bit slower than before.)

i keep changing batteries and it still responds the same thing.

I get this occasionally. If I recall, unplugging the 360's power cable from the back of the 360 and then plugging it back in solved it. Good luck.

Abel007 already asked you if you synced the controller with the USB reciever, and I don't think you ever answered that.

Have you synced the controller and reciever?

sorry, i overlooked that part.

in response to abel007's question, i synced at same time then the ring of light began to flash in pattern then flashed in a normal mode. the controller doesn't seem to give the receiver some feedback.

Is the device driver installed correctly? That's about the only other thing I can think of.
