Xbox 360 - Guitar Hero 3 ???

my mum just purchased a guitar hero for my little brother today and neither of them know how to use it, i have tried to get it to work and i can't - basically the guitar isn't working, the game itself does because it works using the controller

we have a hdtv and I think that it does not work because we need to purchase a conection wire which conects the guitar to either the tv or the xbox

what IS wrong with the guitar and do i need a wire??? if so where do i get this wire and does it plug the guitar to the xbox or tv???

many thanks in advance

xxxxx

    I had this same issue when I first started playing Guitar Hero.

    You need to sync the guitar to the Xbox.

    http://www.cespage.com/xbox/images/29-08-2005-xbox...

    There is a diagram of the Xbox, you'll see on the left hand side it says memory units, then right underneath them there is a little circular button.

    Press that.

    Than while your lights are blinking on your Xbox, you have to press the little button on the bottom of your guitar. It's kind of hard to see, but it's kind of by the plug in for the headset.

    Then you should be synced and ready to play!!

    1.Turn on your Xbox 360

    2.Put the Guitar Hero 3 Disc Inside The Xbox 360

    3.Get the guitar and press the Xbox button

    4.If it doesnt connect on the Xbox 360.... Press the Red Button on the xbox 360 ( its close where the power on/off is )

    5.While the xbox 360 Power Controller is going around and around, get your guitar and find a little dot and hold that!

    6.If the xbox 360 starts blinking, now it means that your guitar is now the 1st controller of the xbox!

    7. HAVE FUN!! :-]

    many guitars that come with the guitar hero is wireless and so you shouldnt have to use a cord i think you have to sync it to the tv what i have to do to get it to work is shut the xbox off and take the disk out. now sync the guitar to the xbox by pressing and holding the button with the xbox symbol on it. the green lights around the button will go aroung in a circle then whens its synced it to the xbox it will blink
