Help configuring Nokia HDW bluetooth headset to work with ..

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

I got it working. I had just forgotten to hold down the connect button of my
headset to activate the connection with my PC.
My headset is the Nokia HDW-3.
The only drawback is that the microphone sound is kind of weak even if i try
to max it out through the Windows "volume control" pannel.

FYI:
You may need to define the bluetooth headset as your main audio device.
For that matter, go in the config pannel---> "sound and multimedia" .
Select the "audio" tab of "sound and multimedia properties" choose the
"Bluetooth audio" as your prefered
"sound play back" device.
