Hi
I newly installed a win 7 pro on laptop
Everything seems to be ok
My bluetooth does work but keeps asking me to install a driver
when i tried it said BT device not found
What should i do
 

Solution
A vista driver may or may not work for 7, but it is worth a try. Setup.exe-Properties-Compatibility tab. Or extract this driver to a folder, then device manager-right click the device-update-browse to the folder with the driver.

Welcome aboard. : )

What driver did you try to install? You should search for one at your notebook manufacturer's support site.

If you know your bluetooth device model exactly, you can try a driver straight from the bluetooth manufacturer. However, occasionally it doesn't work well and you need to get one from the notebook support site.

Is this your model?

You could try Vista driver, but I don't see it there ...
