Bluetooth & Connectivity Help Center / can't seem to get Smothboard to see wiimote
« on: May 18, 2009, 03:45:09 PM »
Here’s the trouble I’m having with getting the wiimote set up.
I have Bluetooth running on a Lenovo t60p running xp sp 2. I know that the Bluetooth is operational because I can send pictures to the laptop from my phone. I’m trying to use the Microsoft Bluetooth stack. I can add the wiimote as a Bluetooth device and see Nintendo RVL-CNT-01 as a device (with the correct mac id for the wiimote). So it seems to think I’m connected.
At this point I try to start Smoothboard and get the error message “Error reading data from the Wiimote…is it connected?”
Just to double check I tried using the WiimoteConnect app. If I press connect in that app it gives me a dialog saying “1 Wiimote/s successfully connected.” So it thinks I’m connected too.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong....seems like I'm 99% of the way there.
Thanks,
Mike
