Hi,
Laptop: Acer Aspire 5745-5462G50Mnks
RAM: 6 GB
Bluetooth : BCM92046
OS: Win 7 Professional (64 Bit)
I have tried hard for 2 days to get the bluetooth working. All other peripherals are working well, I have installed Broadcom driver (from the drive CD), but a message says the device is not connected. Also Windows does not detect the bluetooth hardware, and is not listed in the device manager listing. I tried using the Fn +F3 key combo to switch ON/OFF the bluetooth/wireless devices but nothing happend when I do this, even the Wireless connection remains enabled.
I know the bluetooth hardware is OK as it is working on Ubuntu 12.04, and I was able to connect to my cell phone.
For some reason I cannot get it working on Windows 7
Please help...
Note: the laptop originally did not come with any operating system, I installed Ubuntu 10.04 and was working vey well.
thanks
a
