Real Wiimote Immediate Disconnect

12-23-2011, 12:59 AM #1

I am having trouble getting the wiimote to work. I've followed the normal pairing procedure and dolphin and windows recognize the wiimote.

Once I start a game, I can press the buttons once, and it will then tell me I need to reconnect the controller. Alt+F5 does nothing. The wiimote still shows a single blue light and dolphin still shows that a wiimote is connected.

I have tried the instructions here but it still does the same thing.

It does this will all my games, but I have only tried New Super Mario Bros, Twilight Princess and Mario Galaxy 1 and 2

Please help.

Windows 7 64-bit
Intel i5 2500k
Geforce 9600 GT
8 GB RAM
Rocketfish Micro USB Bluetooth adapter
Dolphin 3.0-235
Official Wiimote + Nunchuck + Motionplus

Either the battery is dead low, or you need a new Bluetooth dongle. Tis my guess. Though I here the Rocketfish is a good one.

My wiimote and the sensor bar have fresh batteries.

I was suspecting the bluetooth dongle. I have tried with the WIDDCOMm and the Bluesoiel stack but I still get the same issue.

I did have another dongle but I can't find it to test with.

I found that Bluesoiel and other stacks do not work well at all. You need to use the windows versions.

The bluesoiel didnt work at all. Ive had the best results with the windows drivers, but even that only work for about 5 button presses

Just an update to this, I connected the wiimote in my Hackintosh OS and it works fine.

Same hardware, but running Mac OS X 10.6.8.

Must be a Windows Driver problem.
