Supa_Fly Joined: Apr 16, 2002 Posts: > 500 From: Toronto, Ontario PM, WWW	Posted: 2007-07-21 07:10 For those having trouble ESPECIALLY with WinXP SP2 (as this is the first Windows OS that supports bluetooth directly upon fresh install; SP1 had a makeshift install that was very buggy) - HOW MANY BT Icons do you have in the system tray?? 1) I'm willing to bet you have more than 1. If not goto Start> Run: (enter) devmgmt.msc (enter) Device Manager loads. How may listings under Bluetooth connections do you have here? Betcha there is 2. if so THIS is the issue why > Control Panel> My bluetooth places isn't accessible fully. 2) somehow you'll need to uninstall the Windows listing for Bluetooth and delete registry entries for Bluetooth. ^ PLEASE FULLY LOOK THIS UP BEFORE TRYING! thanks hope that this sparks a few ideas for those more savy with regedit. Personally I've deleted all BT registry entries before I installed my DLinK BT unit, then when I uninstalled that BTv1.1 device. I installed the BlueSoleil unit. Was driving me INSANE that the BlueSoleil I coudn't SEND files from my PC to my K790a so I uninstalled it but cannot for the life of me get Windows XP SP2 to install its original drivers back again \|AppleTV2\|iPhone 12Mini 256GB\|iPad Pro 256GB\| Previously ...

I'll see if I still have it > Yeah I have "pack rat" storage issues like my mother - which is habit I cannot break - but I'm more organized. I'll keep ya posted. \|AppleTV2\|iPhone 12Mini 256GB\|iPad Pro 256GB\| Previously ...

I'm asking because I never experience any problem with the one that I had now. now, the previous one that I bought off eBay gives me a million trouble (can't connect phone to comp, plugged dongle isn't recognized by comp, sometimes it is recognized but software can't load up, etc etc etc). it came with a widcomm software I think, or something sound like that. proud owner of a K750i, a dead K850i, HTC Touch Cruise, and a Nokia X5-01
