You need a sensor bar.
Search the forums, there are many many threads about sensor bars.

I have the same problem, with the no IR pointer, and I have had a look around many places, but haven't really found anything. I have just one question; do we need an actual Wii sensor bar (or homemade equivalent), or is there a virtual one that we can load up on the computer screen?
Thanks if you can help.

And what about those of us who have a wireless wii bar, and the pointer doesn't move (on the menu, at least), is there a simple way to test if the wiibar is actually working?

Take a picture of it with a digital camera or web cam.
You should see purple sources of light.

Good suggestion, neither my cellphone, my web cam, nor my standard camera showed me anything Undecided. I took the wiibar apart, and poked around (didn't do anything), and now it works.... That's what you get for buying the ultra-cheapo wiibar on eBay...
Thanks for the idea on how to test it Rolleyes
