[El Guaraguao]

This thread really should be all over the place. It could be posted in hardware, networking, pc gaming, highly technical and peripherals. :awe:


I have 2 laptops. I use motionjoy to use my ps3 controller to play games.

Laptop A - has NO bluetooth, but its a gaming laptop.
Laptop B - HAS bluetooth, but not a gaming laptop.


I want to use the controller in wireless\bluetooth mode on laptop A. Is there any way of creating some type of network between both laptops so I can use this wireless\bluetooth on laptop A?


Notes

- Laptop A is pretty much stationary (don't ask)
- I don't have a long USB cable to reach where I want need it.
- The bluetooth module is integrated in laptop B. So I cant swap.
- If you guys help me achieve this, Ill send pics of my ghetto-setup 😛

1) plug the VGA from Laptop B to Laptop A.
2) Use bluetooth with laptop A screen.

On a serious note I can't really think of anything hassle-free other than get a bluetooth adapter.. .

I'm sure you could write, hack something or there is already some source out there you could modify but it'll be some work...

I understand, However, If I have the tools already, why go out and waste money? Know what Im sayin? 😀

Get a cheap BT adapter. Sheesh! The fact you even asked tells me you have no idea just how cheap these can be.

Have YOU ever seen a laptop with VGA input?!

...also, it would have the inferior video chipset from laptop B. 🙄
