Disable Bluetooth passkey for dual Boot for vista and xp
Using Vista I have Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 7000 and I don't have the option to disable the passkey for the keyboard. I want to disable the passkey in order to get the Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 7000 to work with dual boot OS; windows xp and windows vista. I do have the option to disable the bluetooth passkey in windows xp, but I dont have it in Vista. I appreciate the help... Thanks, -- belkin Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |

Disable Bluetooth passkey for dual Boot for vista and xp
Waw it took me 5 minutes to figure it out.. This is what you need to do first boot to windows xp. In control panel -- Blue Tooth, then remove the keyboard device. make sure you are in software mode. Click ok Then go the Microsoft keyboard software in the program files.. Under the wireless tab click connect.. follow the instructions press the little pin on your mouse to detect the device then press the little pin on your keyboard to detect (on this process there is no passkey set yet(hint))... When you click next press cancel on the next process to skip the passkey initialization. To check if it works go back to the blue tooth in the control panel and check on the device there should NOT show any keyboard devices. Boot to Vista and do the same process.. This is a little glitch on the keyboard software that helped me a lot to get the wireless keyboard work on dual boot mode... -- belkin Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
