How does Bluetooth work?
 
Really I know this is a stupid question because this seems to be a common sense thing but I've never used it, I just use cell phones to.. you know.. talk.
SO basically what I am doing is trying to hook up my Wiimote to my PC as a game controller. I have the program to do it and the Wiimote itself, the bridge between it is getting Bluetooth activated? There is "Bluetooth Devices" on my control panel, so I am assuming my computer has it built in. It won't pick up my cell phone, though? How do I turn Bluetooth on?

You need a device that receives data from you phone and needs to be plugged into your PC. They're really cheap.

Even if it's "built-in"?

I would get the "built-out" kind myself.

I'm not sure 'cause I have an old PC wich needs an external device. I would have imagined that if you have 'built-in' bluetooth on your computer all you have to do is go to the control panel and switch it on. Not sure.

If by Jesus, you mean Catholic Baby Jesus and not the famous bowler.

your machine changes the file into a 2.4ghz radio signal then the other end recieves and converts it back into 1s and 0s....

in the case of your wiimote the computer will make a solid connection with it and data from the wii is sent to the computer.... voila!!!
