    Bluetooth USB dongle

    I bought this USB bluetooth dongle, no siftware came with it. I plugged it in and it installed drivers.
    Trouble is it does not work. Device manager shows a yellow mark on it. I tried a driver update and message said best driver is installed.
    It is called a CSR bluetooth rado.
    I went to there web site and cant find anything. I teid it on both 32 and 64 bit windows 7 for same result.
    Anyone know where i can get drivers for it?

    In Device Manager, right-click on it and choose Properties, and post back what the exact error is.

    I followed the instructions from the web site. It did happen exactly the same but in device manager i have.
    *Bluetooth Radios
    * CSR Bluetooth
    * Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator

    Both are ok with no yellow marks.

    I have tried to connect 2 phones and neither will connect.

    Bluetooth adapter I use:

    http://www.mwave.com/mwave/skusearch...pagetitle=AZIO BTDV-201 Bluetooth USB Micro Adapter up to 100 met

    Needs no additional drivers other than the Windows ones (XP).
    I don't know if it works with Windows 7 or not though.

    Thanks for the link, SpywasreDr. So far I have never had to install a driver for these Bluetooth adapters, which is one reason I like them. Chances are Windows 7 will automatically install a driver for them as well, but it is good to know they will work with Windows 7.
