Sorry about this newbie post but after days of failed attempts i had to try something i have never done before. SPECS: I am using a es-388 bluetooth adapter to connect my wiimotes to windows xp. Also, i use the activated IVT bluesolei (6.2) program to connect my 2 wiimotes to my computer. In DeviceManager it appears i have two bluetooth drivers; 1= "HP Bluetooth Device" Driver version 6.1.30.94 provided by IVT Corporation and 2= Bluetooth Device driver version 6.1.30.94 also provided by the IVT corp. In device manager, under Human Interface Devices there are (2) Bluetooth HID Device, (3) HID-Compliant Game Controllers and (1) Parallel Port Joystick Drivers... CONTEXT: Both wiimotes are conected in the bluesoleil to the Bluetooth Human Interface Device. In classic view, both wiimotes (wimmotes are represented as joysticks and both are labeled as "RVL-CNT-01") are green and continuously receive a small red dot floating from the orange sphere. Both wiimotes have their own device addresses and respond accuratly to the radio signal strength in the status menu. Until i use Wiimote test or Glovepie, the LEDs on both wiimotes keep flashing. Once i use Wiimote test or a glovepie script one wiimote responds (numbers change and the LEDs stop flashing and/or change according to program instuctions) while the other wiimotes LED continues to flash, apparently unaffected by the program(s). PROBLEM: Need help connecting the unresponsive wiimote, the one that appears to be connected in blue soleil and whose lights are flashing, but does not respond to wiimote test or glovepie scripts. For those who want to help thank you so much. Although i have Visual Basic, i have no idea how to use it, so if your advice involves VB i would greatly appreciate a walkthough. Thanks for all your work Brian!

It sounds like a Bluetooth incompatibility if it's happening in multiple applications. GlovePIE shares nothing with my WiimoteLib, so it's an issue deeper down. With that being the case, I don't have any good advice for you other than getting a different bluetooth dongle/stack.
