If there is someone who has succesfully installed MSI bluetooth software (not just drivers) on Windows XP SP2 and can send files from phone to PC then PLEASE contact me. I am really f****g tired of that s**t.

The solution1: delete or rename files as instructed in this thread.

The solution2: http://www.bluetake.com/Manua[....]tionGuide_WindowsXP-SP2_EN.pdf

Do a search here or on the web, to obtain instructions to hack the driver file so that it will work without the security key. I was able to use 1.4.x.x software from IBM, Belkin, etc.. to work on my Mitsumi adapter.

But can you send files from phone to PC, using only the SP2 default bluetooth software?

I am using the MSI bluetooth dongle with SP2 and i have to say that while its nice not to have to use additional software....the MS bt software sucks big time....

The serial ports, Dial-up works ok...the file transfer TO the phone is ok....however, if you do a device services search of the PC from the k700i it lists no supported services therefore you cannot send files from the k700 to the pc without additional software (FMA)

Also, the HID service does actually work but once you turn it on it seems to constantly want to take over the phone...annoying...

I think the MS software needs some serious work....OR it could be that MSI is not on the list of officially supported dongles with SP2 so it had to produce its own drivers which i think suck a little at the moment.

Anyone elses comments would be useful

SP2 makes me mad. Progress made around here! MSI website now works again and I got the security key. The next question: where to put it? The 1.4.3 (the latest from their website) software doesn't ask for that key when installing. On the MSI website ther is a FAQ entry for "Installing driver 1.4.2" - there it says that there has to be a file wich I have to execute and insert the key - no file with the given name exists in the given folder, though I have installed 1.4.3. So the MSI soft still says "no device found". Is there anybody out there who uses MSI software with SP2 and not Microsoft stack?
