I am having problems getting the Dolphinbar to work in Dolphin. Dolphinbar syncs with my official wiimote (with motion plus inside) but the controller is not found in Dolphin. I have tried setting it up in 4.0-5378, 4.0-4473, and 4.0-3575 to no avail. However, upon connecting Dolphinbar to Windows 7 via usb Windows shows an error message saying that the "Mayflash Wiimote PC Adapter" driver was not successfully installed. I have tried every usb port on the computer and all of them have this same error and Dolphin does not recognize the wiimote. Is this a driver issue or an issue with Dolphin? I have been unable to find a driver online anywhere, just the firmware update.
P.S.
I have tried the v3 firmware update but it said that it was already up to date. I have also tried using alt+f5 after loading a game but that does not work.
I have no idea what to do, any ideas?
EDIT:
I have just tested it again but in a VMware virtual machine running Windows 8.1. Upon opening Dolphin this time and setting up the wiimote it vibrated and I believe that means it connected? Since it is a VM I cant actually run a game to test for sure. I also did not get that driver error on the VM. So that must mean the issue is actually a driver one but I am still unsure how to go about fixing it.
EDIT 2:
I solved the problem, see my post below.
