I have searched everywhere, followed about 5million different guides yet still i cannot get my MSI bluetooth dongle to work on windows xp sp2. It is getting late and i am in need of sleep and my brain has lost the will to search through another 5million guides, only to end up with the same problem everytime.
All the guides i have found revolve around the theory of cancelling windows installation of the device by going to a place called bluetooth radio in device manager. the problem is, this is not there in my device manager.
I currently have no bluetooth software installed because none of it works, and the one that showed promise it would work requires a security key (widcomm 1.4.2 i think). However, this security key is obtained from your bluetooth device. problem being, i have no working software to give me the address of my bluetooth device so how can i possibly get a security code. it is a catch 22 with no solution that i have so far found. I cant get my address without working widcomm drivers, but i cant get working widcomm drivers without the security code, whcih can only be gotten if u know your bT address. How does anyone install this program? I tried the hex-hack approach but that failed to provide any results, because although it got around the missing licence file it then says "bluetooth device not found" whenever i try and do something using the program.
Windows supposed own bluetooth drivers appear to be non-existent on my machine, yet i have sp2 installed. If anyone can help me in anyway i would greatly appreciate it because my comptuer along with the dongle is on the verge of being thrown out my second floor window. Thanks in advance.
