The Bluetooth dongle that came with my Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer works
just fine. Chris Werner "Ken" wrote in message ... IS anyone aware of a bluetooth dongle that will work in Vista? My D-Link DBT 120 B4 does not have driver that works. |

My D-Link DBT 120 B4 does not have driver that works. That's really strange: The Bluetooth Dongle which came with my Microsoft Bluetooth Desktop Elite does not work at all. Apparently, the metal sheathing around the connector is simply too thin, and won't provide a proper connection. I got so frustrated by it that I threw the darn thing in the trash, and bought a Logitech MX5000 Laser Desktop. It works just fine, and NEVER needs to be re-connected. The keyboard and mouse are just there when I need them. However, my motherboard does not recognize the dongle on boot, so I keep my Dell wired keyboard around just in case I have to enter the BIOS setup program. So much for Microsoft keyboards and mice. I used to swear by them, but after using my Logitech desk set, I have a single word to say about purchasing Microsoft keyboards and mice: DON'T!!! -- Donald L McDaniel Please reply to the original newsgroup and thread. ------------------------------------------------------ |
