Plug usb end directly into your usb slot on the pc, download the drivers from Microsoft's site, and then play a game that is either made to use the controller properly, i.e. Assassins Creed or Crysis, or use a joy/key app, like Joy2Key to set up buttons to correspond to keyboard buttons.

On a wired Xbox 360 controller is the data transmitted through the USB wire or is the data transmitted wirelessly and the wire is only used to power the controller?

On a wired controller everything is transferred threw the usb wire. This why you must always make sure that there is not any damage to the cord or else the controls might not work or seem "sluggish". On a wired controller all the power is threw the cord, which again can be disrupted by any damage to the cord itself.
