MultiOS computer + Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000
Hi everyone!
I work as a developer for IT Company so I need to compile and test win applications on different operation systems. There is quite a big project I am working on. And it requires compiling only on WinXP because of old code and old SDK used in it. As far as I and my colleagues concern it is not possible to compile it on Vista + VS2008. So I have Acer aspire notebook with Vista preinstalled. And I've installed WinXP as additional system. And I stuck into a problem that my "Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000" can't pair with these OS simultaneously. But I think that "pairing" Bluetooth devices it is just exchanging some (public?) keys to make connection between them. I also think that in case of windows Bluetooth driver, there must be a registry keys which hold these keys. So the question is: how can I export them from Vista and import into WinXP (or vice versa) to pair device without actually go through pairing. Because every pairing process mean changing these keys so another OS won't be able to work with mouse. Or maybe there are another ways to make it work? Or there is some literature where I could find answers on my questions? Thanks in advance!!! |
