Cannot Bluetooth Active Sync PPC

My Details:

PPC:
Ipaq hx2750
Windows Mobile 2003SE
Rom Update

PC:
Windows XP
Active Sync v3.8
MSI Bluetooth Dongle MS6970


I got myself an MSI bluetooth dongle to Active Sync With My PC. I enabled a serial port, works fine for transfering files, but I can only view the internal Storage on my ipaq.

I changed the serial port on the active sync and started a active sync Connection on my ppc.
It say's "Conecting...." but Active Sync times out and shows the a window that say's "Microsoft Active Sync cannot recognise this Device for one of two Reasons........"
Ive Changed the serial port to every one that's available, but I Still cant get is to connect via Active Sync.

I Had a Celllink Bluetooth Adaptor, But that didn't work, so I exchanged it with a MSI Bluetooth Adaptor. It Still won't Work.

Please Help..........!

Any Suggestions, Please drop me a e-mail.

Thanks

You don't tell us if you're using the Windows XP Service Pack 2 Bluetooth software, or Widcomm. In any case, please check the appropriate Bluetooth Guide.

Also, make sure there's no software firewall blocking communications, as some internal IP communication is required for Bluetooth to work.

Sorry, my message was so confusing.

I Installed a fresh copy of Windows Xp on My Computer with just the bare necceseties, I havent installed SP2 yet, but my Winxp has SP1 Included.

The Bluetooth Works Fine, it is just the syncronising that do'nt work. I got my Sony Ericcson P800 to Sync with his own Software perfectly, but my Pocket PC won't work.

All the settings is OK I have checked it and try'd over and over again, but it won't recognise my PPC.

What is this "Widcom Drivers" everyone is talking about, maybe it is that what I'm missing.

Thanks
