Dongle is HP BT 500,  software is what came in the box with the dongle its a menu that has my device, add device, neighborhood, and find devices. None of those buttons or folders seem to work, each says the searching cannot begin. In the bluetooth places, It will recognize the HP when it is in a usb slot. But it does not want to do anything like search or connect. The wii cannot be found because my  dongle isnt working right. Could it be that my usb ports are too old or something? why would it be recognized but not work? When I try to use Bluesoliel it cannot find anything.

thanks  for your reply, and the link boonhjin will be amazing once I can  connect.

I will respond in your own topic. (watch for multiple postings it upsets the forum gods)!

Hi guys,

Im hoping m problem is an easy one.

I can connect to my wii remote, and use it perfectly in GlovePie.

When i try to connect using wiidesktopvr.exe it says it cant connect. I have tried editing the wiimote.cs but it comes up with several errors. Im not a programmer so have no idea what to do.

Also i cant fine the wiimote test app which alot of people have made refrence to.

I am using a Belking BT adaptor with the Belkin Application.
Again, i can use it perfectly in GlovePie but DesktopVR just wont connect to it.

Can someone please post an idiots guide to getting this to work.

Many thanks

If connects & Glovepie works, not a bluetooth problem.

I suggest you post a new topic requesting help in the most applicable support thread on the forum.

Include as much detail as possible so users can provide support.

I'm about to buy a USB Bluetooth dongle but I don't know which on would be the best for the Wiimote. I was looking on dealextreme.com a lot. Does anybody know which is the best for the wiimote?

Thanks!!

Hi,

I'm a newbee in this, with limited develompent knowlage.
for some reason i can't make the whitebord or any other Johnnylee app's to work.
i always get the message "error reading from wiimote...is it connected?"
i tried to use the solution by "atomriot" in changing the code of the Wiimote.cs but it's still showing me the same error.
for a while i manage to work the wiimoteTest.exe (from codeplex) and the white board was working as well, but then when i tried again both of them stopped working
i still manage to get the wiimoteConnect-0.6 to work with no problems, even the autoconnect works just fine.

i'm using windows XP, SP3, .net3.5
the BT is a dungle made in china (no details what so ever on that...) and i'm using the regular windows defoult BT stack.
btw it works just fine with wiiflash
