It was working, now it isn't - jto26 - 08-04-2015
Alright, I'm not sure if this has been addressed, or if I never found the right solution, but I'm in a desperate need of help as soon as possible.
A few days ago I discovered Dolphin emu, the wiimote was connecting perfectly fine on my built-in bluetooth, and it'd conenct to player 1. However suddenly today it'd connect to bluetooth and disconnect, but when I use dolphin, it just flat out doesn't secure a connection to player 1 at all, nothing happens on refresh. I've been researching the internet for the past 8 hours trying everything. And now when I try adding a wiimote on bluetooth, it says Authentication error about some password or pairing security on the wiimote despite being set to pair without a code.
Please help ASAP! I can't see why it suddenly stopped working mid-way into my game. :l

I must also add that it works perfectly fine on my brother's laptop which is 3 years older than my PC, and that I've tried WiiMote Controller 0.6 and Blueilon, at the moment I'm at a complete loss and sad

Maybe remove the Bluetooth device (configuration and all) and try to re-pair the Wiimote? (This isn't a new Wii Remote Plus ("Nintendo RVL-CNT-01-TR"), correct? I assume so since you were able to get it connected before.)

Hmm, I guess it's a weird case, let me speak more in detail
Everytime I attempt to connect through Add a Device (starting this morning), I get this message http://puu.sh/jotvj/01d25c8361.png about some authentication, meaning the device itself doesn't appear in configuration to remove. So I tried a work around by right-clicking the device and clicking okay to make it an HID or so similar to wireless mouses, it connects to the configuration part, I tried it and even did the remove suggestion to re-pair, however I get that above message repeatedly, sometimes I get to re-pair but it makes no difference afterwards. Cause the wiimote doesn't connect to Dolphin once all that gets passed. It's been a whole big mess.
I even tried to update my drivers for both microsoft and HP built-in yet no difference. And yea its a basic original Wii Remote.
