You will have to install the software for the blue tooth first. I don't think your wireless kb and mouse are plug and play. So if your are building a new computer then you have to use a ps2 or usb connection keyboard in order to install the window. Your mobo should have both ps2 and usb plug, and if you don't have one around then you should be able to get a ps2 kb for around $5. Good Luck.

You will have to enable the ir port in the bios
