How to Connect a Wii to XP

Many people are not aware of this, but you can use your Wii remote for gaming on your Windows XP PC. This can make your gaming experience a bit easier. Your computer must have Bluetooth capability for this to work because Wii uses Bluetooth technology for its controllers. Bluetooth cards can be added to your computer if you do not already have one.
