USB bluetooth device-Generic bluetooth Radio - GSM-Forum

Hello people

Could somebody please explaine to me, when installing a bluetooth USB device why i cant seem to find or choose the generic bluetooth radio, and why windows wont install it with its own drivers so not to use the software supplied, im running Service Pack 2 but it wont pick the device up and install it, the reason im asking is because i want to use Nokia PC suite and have it connect to my mobile through the dongle but im always getting a message saying "cannot use the connection type" even though the software would be installed and working fine.

The software thats supplied with the dongle is the Bluesoleil v1.4.9.5, ive spent three days installing and uninstalling different software and drivers without success.

My computer is the Dimension 4550 and ive tried useing the dongle on a dell laptop and the laptop was able to use its own drivers and the generic bluetooth radio is listed in the device manager and was able to connect to the mobile through the nokia pc suite

Hope to hear from someone soon, Thank u

I had the same problem few days ago
uninstall the BLUESOLEIL DRIVERS and install the WIDCOMM BLUETOOTH DRIVERS (they work perfectly) and then pc suite will find your bluetooth dongle
if you are using a SBS dongle i'm sure it will work

ciao ciao
