Hello,

I was told to buy a Generic Bluetooth Adapter for my PC which I have Placed in the USB slot as required. It shows up on the devices in Win 8 Pro but I cannot get it to detect my Bluetooth Headset. Is there any software or drivers I require to connct it all up?

I have a win 8 pro Desktop PC

The Bluetooth Adapter is a Mini USB one from Argos

And My Bluetooth Headset is a Giotek EX-03

As I say it appears in devices and in device manager but when I search for device it never detects headset any ideas?

Problem with bluetooth is, that it uses different protocols for different applications and not all protocols are supported be every adapter. One review for your product says "It doesn't allow stereo sound streaming which is why it gets 4 stars.", so is suppose, the audio/headset protocol is not supported.

Thanks, That does seem the most likely issue, I will try and get another headset :)
