Well I ordered one of those usb bluetooth adapters (the one mentioned on page one), and got my wiimote, but im not having any luck getting my pc to recognize it. Im using the latest version of BlueSoleil (2.3 evaluation version if that matters). I have lights on my bluetooth adapter (so I guess thats working), but when I try and use the "Bluetooth Device Discovery" on BlueSoleil it says no "No new device found".
I DO have batteries in the wiimote... are there supposed to be any lights on the wiimote?
Any ideas?

"Batterie leds"? At the bottom of my wiimote i have 4 little lights, but i think thats just to indicate what 'player' you are. Ive tried two sets of batteries and get no lights anywhere. Where is this led light again?
*nevermind, I reseated the nunchuck attachment and I have lights now. looks like its being detected now too.
Cool thanks
*ok still one last problem. I see the wiimote in the BlueSoleil window (called Nintendo RVL-CNT), however, according to pjcast...
*edit
All is well. I followed the tutorial on WiiLi which tipped me off to the fact that you need to hold buttons 1+2 to put the wiimote into 'discovery mode' before you can refresh the services.
Everything works great now. My only complaint - I wish I could hold the wiimote in my right hand (for the wiimote + nunchuck controls). Walaber must be a lefty :p

When I rightclick the wiimote icon I only have options to "Refresh Services" or "Pair Device", both of which fail with a "Service Discovery Failed" error. The only other option is "Status" and "Properties", but I dont see anywhere where I can "activate HID services".After the bluesoliel discovers the wiimote, you have to right click on the wiimote icon in the control panel there, and then activate HID services for it.

I posted this in OIS somewhere, dug it up for you:
http://www.alanmacek.com/usb/
Do a search and copy these files to ois\src\win32\extras\WiiMote:
HID.LIB
HIDPI.H
HIDSDI.H
HIDUSAGE.H
SetupAPI.H
SetupAPI.LIB
Make sure the preprocessor definition OIS_WIN32_WIIMOTE_SUPPORT is added to the OIS project, or that this is defined in code.
