Unable to connect wiimote. please help

[dreadkopp]

Aloha community!

My girlfriend and me like to play games. Due to the lack of splitscreen games for pc I discovered Dolphin, which works great.

To be able to play games like Mario Party 9, i bought 2 wiimotes (fake ones from ebay).

The problem is, that my PC won't recognize them.

I'm running win 8 enterprise N x64 and using a Logitech Laser MX -dongle which came with my Mouse/Keyboard.

according to this site: [link] http://wiibrew.org/wiki/List_of_Working_Bluetooth_Devices [/link] it should work.

I am able to connect my mouse, my phone or another PC. The Wiimote is not recognized by the PC. Neither by pressing repeatedly 1+2 nor by pressing the red button near the batteries.

Neither with Microsoft Bluetooth stack, nor with Blue Soleil Bluetooth stack nor with Toshiba Bluetooth stack.

Trying to figure out what the problem might be for hours and getting more and more frustated.

I hope someone can help.

Thanx & Greetings

That's probably your problem. Unofficial Wiimotes often have difficulties with Dolphin

i havent come that far. the wiimotes aren't even recognized by the pc. are they fake-wiimotes which were known to work? because i nearly find no original wiimotes in ebay. (except the golden zelda one game for about 80 € )
