The Wii is working!

Thanks to everyone who offered tips and info. When absolutely nothing worked when everyone said it should I went back and disconnected everything then started over. Apparently there was a loose connection or even a question of whether the motion bar was even plugged in....Beast refuses to discuss it! Whatever it was, it's working now. I just need to get the books out and figure out all these settings.

Thanks again!

or go borrow a kid over the age of 5, that might be faster :) and certianly less stress - I am the only one in the house - and yes that indludes the toddler that does not really get the wii and how it works

Yay! Glad to hear it. I knew you could do it...

A connection! [Shell smacks her own forhead] I didn't think about that either. Hope you have better luck with it now.

Good to hear Deedles.. I am glad you got it going.. I never would have thought about a bad connection..

I hope you will get moving on it soon...think you will love it..  I just love mine.. The more I do it the easier the understanding thing is too.. It is realy not as hard as it sounds.. you will get it.. each game you have to learn how to do too.. but you will get them really fast .. I get to laughing out loud  trying to do them the very first time.. 
 
keep at it and before you know it you will be telling us what all you are doing and how many calories you burned etc.. I did 53 minutes tonight and burned 230 calories..  and it went by so fast... It is great..
