Ok. so yea, i want this done.

step 1) get a bluetooth dongle (i have a bluetooth built into my laptop)

step 2) get bluetooth adapter drivers

step 3) get a wireless IR bar(or just use your wii's if it can reach)

step 4a) ->control panel -> devices and printers -> add a device

step 4b) hit 1+2 simultaneously on the wiimot, add the device

step 5) brag


Ok, that is what i need todo, I am having trouble with the laptop registering the wiimotes bluetooth signal. Can someone help me figure this out.

If I get it to work ill try and upload a vid of me playing planetside with a wiimote, should be a good time lol


EDIT: thats what i figured out so far. I think there is something else i need to download after that so the wiimote is read like a mouse, but i want to get it connected first

also the driver I have is bluesoliel

Your Nerdcred would go up a couple of points though. Think of the tail you could get with that knowledge!
