You may not know it, but if you have a Wii (and consequentially a Wii controller), you are using a Bluetooth-enabled device that is perfectly compatible with your computer if you know how to set it up. You can turn your Wiimote into a fully operational computer mouse just by following these quick and easy steps.

STEPS:

1. You are going to need a Bluetooth dongle if your computer is not Bluetooth enabled (and it probably isn't unless you have a laptop). Buy one of these first if you need one.

2. Connect and install your Bluetooth dongle on your computer.

3. Go to the following website to download the driver you'll need:

Windows -http://carl.kenner.googlepages.com/GlovePIE029.zip

Mac OSX - http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=183966 &package_id=214095&release_id=469783

Linux - http://www.wiili.org/index.php/WMD

4. Once installed, find a desktop icon called "My Bluetooth Spaces" or find a tiny "B" icon beside your computer clock and click that(You can also find another icon in "Start").

5. After that, click Bluetooth Setup.

6. Click "Next" and scroll down and click "Human Interface Device".

7. Then when it says "Searching Devices" press 1 and 2 on your Wiimote.

8. When it gets connected, finish the setup and your done!

9. With these steps, you can also play games and softwares for the controller.

Tips:

Make sure that your Bluetooth dongle is in range of the Wiimote (about 20-30 feet), otherwise you won't have a very effective or efficient mouse.
Be sure to check the default settings on the driver utility to configure the Wiimote mouse exactly as you would like it.
You might need a sensor bar on top of your screen or two lit up candles.
