n00b controller question using keyboard

[cnico88]

So it's my first time using Dolphin and I've done my fair amount of research before jumping in.

I downloaded the latest version of Dolphin off the website. Obviously I updated my graphics, audio, Visual C++ and Direct X to latest.


I am using a Super Mario Galaxy ISO and the game starts to load, sound loads, graphics are nice and then I get hit with this message: "connect a nunchuck to player 1's wii remote" I went to the thread dedicated for this game and checked all the boxes that were necessary.

I looked in the settings and it says that the wiimote is set to virtual and keyboard. I am using the keyboard for now but something is not right if I get this message.

Specs are:

Windows 7 x64
Intel Core i7 860 @2.8GHz
XFX Radeon HD 5870
4GB DDR3 RAM
Asus P55 1156 board
1TB Western Digital Black
