Belkin Bluetooth Adapter F8T001 & XP2

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.bluetooth (More info?)

Hi,

I have upgraded to xp2. I did not have a bluetooth installation previously.

When I plug the usb adapter in; windows attempts to install it. However
after searching it cannot locate any drivers.

I do no think the dongle is supported by xp2. Do I use the CD from belkin to
do the install.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for that. I had it installed and working correctly on my old laptop
using xp. I have bought a new laptop and have just installed xp2 but I had
not installed the bluetooth dongle yet.
