Emulated wiimote constant disconnect - danegro - 05-12-2010

Hi, I'm new to your forums, but not new to emulating. I'm having trouble keeping my emulated wiimote connected. Or atleast that's what Dolphin's saying to me, although I've never had any problems with this controller before, and still don't with any other emulators. It'll play for awhile and then it will randomly say the wiimote has been disconnected, and if i want to automatically reconnect. I click yes, but Dolphin freezes up as soon as the alert comes up in the first place
I'm running Dolphin 2.0
Windows 7 64b
intel core 2 duo 4Ghz (total)
4 GB ram
nVidia GEforce GTX 260m
i'm using a wireless ps3 controller (logitech)

any help would be appreciated!

also, the game it's doing it with is New Super Mario Bros; I'm not sure if it does it on just that game yet.

Lokk up official thread in Game Discussion, you need to patch your ISO

Patched it; that made it so i can finally save and load states without it freezing
However, it didn't fix the problem of the emulated wiimotes disconnecting still.

Any other suggestions?

Side note; will I have to patch all my wii games to work correctly?
Now it's not working again for some reason; it's doing the same thing.
I try to load a state, and it brings up this message;

Note that this is also the same message that is coming up randomly and then it crashes Dolphin. This is happens to be the same alert I get for when I try to load a state.

I have this problem with No More Heroes 2 Desperate Struggle , and it has been a desperate struggle , it only worked once , I was only able to get in the game one time , and since then I can't even get into the game after the opening video because the emulated Wii remote is , according to the game , never connected.

Sometimes it will show it's connected very quickly then the game will say it's not , it shows it's connected by asking if you want to create a save , then it errors out in the game and the game tells me it has lost the connection , before I can create a save.

But usually I don't even see the "do you want to save" part , it just goes immediately to having lost the connection.

I am new to the Dolphin emulator , I just figure the emulated Wii remote just does not work that well , depending on the game. It works fine on Madworld.

I've used the latest Dolphin and latest unofficial build and it's all the same.
I also see that "wiimote 1 has been disconnected" problem when using save states , but Madworld works after clicking yes.

Basically I just don't believe it works well with every game , only some games.
