Before I've realized that windows xp sp2 has build-in drivers for bluetooth I had SP1 before, I've installed Widcomm 5.1.0.1100 + licence patcher V2, I've inserted my bluetooth dongle, it was recognized, when I try to use it, widcomm software didn't find any bluetooth device attached, MS software did, then I decided to reboot, after that reboot, my troubles started, when I insert bluetooth, I receive message that bluetooth malfunction, under USB in device proporties, says unknown device, tried changing USB port, clearing all USB's from registry under ENUM>USB. Nothing helped, I've uninstalled widcomm, then I found the way how to prevent windows xp sp2 from starting built-in bluetooth, I've stopped it service from services.msc, also under c:\windows\inf renamed 2 files bth.inf and bth.pnf, tried installing widcomm and applying patch, device still unknown. Tried my bluetooth on other computer, all fine with ms build-in drivers. This is what I say under USB properties in registry when device was recognized only once at the beginning, it hardware id says "USB\Vid_0a12&Pid_0001&Rev_1593
USB\Vid_0a12&Pid_0001" if you need some other data just say, says also that this is (CSR USB Bluetooth Device). People can someone please help on this, this is 2nd day I'm trying to find solution with no luck. Neither MS build-in drivers (which as I said I've disable) nor widcomm works with my bluetooth dongle. Sorry for the text being so long, but I wanted to mention everything. Thanks a lot everyone, help really appreciated

Install the widcomm drivers, do not unplug the the usb bluetooth. Now go to device manager and you will see the MS bluetooth (radio) click on update driver and select browse my computer, then select will choose driver. If you don't see widcomm driver untick the small box and you will see it, install and apply patch.

Hi, thank you for your suggestion. Here is what I did, I've first uninstall Widcomm drivers I had, ver 5.1.0.3600, reboot and then tried what you suggested. Started installing with bluetooth pluged in, during installation I received message no bluetooth driver found, I had OK and Cancel, I've pressed Cancel installation finished, asked me to log out which I didn't done immediately, first I've went to sistem, there is no MS bluetooth(radio) it says Bluetooth Bus enumerator, under properties I see that belongs to Broadcom, I've tried updating driver, after choosing option I will select driver unticked small box, whole bunch of names appered, all of them were sign, green mark, I didn't choose anyother I've left bus enumerator, after that reboot in safe mode, I've applied patch, reboot in normal mode, the whole time bluetooth was inside, after taht final restart, situation remained the same:( unfortunaly. After unplug, plug, same message that usb device couldn't be recognized. Any other suggestion? Thanks a lot, really appreciated

I'm still trying to find solution for this, if I select csr generic bluetooth, I get message device can't start error code 10. This is my device hardware IDS
idVendor: 0x0A12
idProduct: 0x0001

I took this from my brother's computer, he never tried installing widcomm, he always uses sp2 build in drivers. Is there a way I can reinstall sp2 default bluetooth drivers? I've tried removing widcomm, tried using build in drivers, but I still get unknown device message when I insert my bluetooth. There must be some fix available. Please, anyone
