Do you have the wireless receiver? The usb cable just allows the battery to recharge. Thats what I think anyway cos I have the same issue.

I've got the X360 pad and play and charge kit, I tried the same and it didn't work. When I did some research, it turns out it's as Kev says. The USB cable plugged in to the x360 wireless pad just charges it, no data goes through it. To get a wireless pad working with a PC you'll need the receiver.
