I just came home from a 3 month vacation and updated XP.
The usual security updates etc installed themselves, and
my Windows Bluetooth desktop promptly stopped working.
Does not respond when i try to reconnect, does not allow
me to reinstall updates to the mouse/keyboard software.
Tries to find windows Bluetooth drivers, but fails and
keeps asking me for "Bluetooth CD". Major mess.
Help me??

p.s.

Has everyone but me found a way to upgrade to SP2??????
Has SP2 been released? I can't se any download option for
SP2 in windows update!! All i find is three thousand
pages of boring SP2 info...
