If your running vista why WinXP drivers?

Can you give me screen dumps of your device manager & driver details.

Looks like you don't know if your Artha or Martha? I think you have multiple stacks installed!

I'm pretty sure we can get you going you will just need work with me.

Before I get you to unload anything (unless you want me to stuff your entire machine!) I need more information:

Computer type: Laptop/Desktop
Last complete Vista update: dd/mm/yyyy
Expand 'network adaptors' in device manager post screen dump:
What BT stacks have you loaded on your machine: (ever)
Download the lastest ccleaner from: http://www.ccleaner.com install the application (don't worry it is a very safe & stable app) select Tools/Uninstall/'Save to Text File' then post that file here.

You have quite a mess in there!

I will need more info, just to be on the safe side and to make sure we kill it all. This may also have the added bonus of speading your machine!

Download, run & post reports from:
Silient Runners: http://www.silentrunners.org/
HijackThis: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download5554.html

When running both make sure they are the only program running and off a fresh boot. Silent runners takes a few minutes just wait and I don't need the extended report.

Can you also take a screen dump of all folders in your c:\program files\ directory.

Once I have this I will be abe to give you a routine to start solving your problem.

The issue is a clash between your logitech BT Stack (generally loaded with older Logitech BT devices and only works with those devices) and your MS BT stack.

What logitech periferal devices are you using: mice/keyboard/camera/etc I need to know which ones and if they are BT or not (part numbers or names would be really helpful). I just need to know what to unload and what not to.

In case you are wondering we are getting there! I think this should be the last question.

I would love to answer your question but last time I checked it was your computer not mine!

Thats all I need, I need some time to think then I'll post what you need to do later today.

It has reminded me this is a stack I need to talk about in the summary of stacks, becuase it does exist and I'm pretty sure it loads when you get the full 'setpoint' drivers from logitech (something you don't really need as the hardware lighter on system requirments as a plug and play device, with no real change to functionality).

Disclaimer: Everything you do is AT YOUR RISK. Without physically looking at your system there is always a risk that I miss something.

Here goes:
1. Do a system restore point: start/all programs/accessories/system tools/system restore

2. Remove any BT USB devices

3. Unplug your Logitech mouse (don't worry we'll reinstall later) & plug in a normal Plug & Play Mouse

4. Open Device Manager & Delete:

• Human Interface Devices: Logitech USB...

5. Control/panel/remove software: uninstall anything that says 'Logitech' or 'Setpoint' there may be several applications.

6. Restart your computer

7. Do a system restore point: start/all programs/accessories/system tools/system restore

8. Delete c:\program files\logitech & C:\Program Files\Common Files\Logishrd

9. Open Hijack this, check any of the following items if still present and run Hijack this.

• C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPoint\SetPoint.exe
• R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=54896
• R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157
• R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157
• R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=54896
• R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=54896
• R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=69157
• R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant =
• R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =
• O4 - Global Startup: Logitech SetPoint.lnk = C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPoint\SetPoint.exe
• O23 - Service: Logitech Bluetooth Service (LBTServ) - Logitech, Inc. - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Logishrd\Bluetooth\LBTServ.exe

Some relate to setpoint and some are just multiple reference in your registry that will slow your machine.

10. Open Device Manager & Delete:

• Network Adaptors: Bluetooth Device (Personal...
• Network Adaptors: Bluetooth Device (RFCOMM...
• Bluetooth Radios: Broadcom...
• Bluetooth Radios: Microsoft Bluetooth...
• Human Interface Devices: Bluetooth HID...

11. Run CCLeaner select Tools/Registry and run the registry cleaner

12. Restart your computer

13. Insert your BT USB device & wait for MS to automatically install all the software

14. Connect a BT mobile & check your radio is communicating (even if you can get teh devices to see eachother is good enough).

15. Connect your wiimote using this guide: http://www.wiimoteproject.com/wiimote-and-bluetooth-connectivity/how-to-connect-wiimote-to-vista/

16. Try a few applications including Thex's wiimote connection utility

17. Load the latest Logitech MX518 drivers http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/428/4259&cl=au,en?osid=13 if you can go to options or advanced in the install process & double check no BT is being addded.

18. Enjoy

Goodluck and let me know how you go.

Are you getting only rumble working, or nothing?

Can you run me through your connection process, using screen dumps if possible.

The fact that your dongle is identified as broadcom is interesting. I wonder if it is not fully compatable with MS BT?

Try downloading widdcomm from:
http://www.telusplanet.net/public/wladykad/bcu-btw4-0-1-700.zip

Then connect with:
My Bluetooth Places/Bluetooth Setup Wizard/I want to find a specific Bluetooth device.../"Hold Buttons 1&2"/Select "Nitendo ..."/Next/Skip/Wait for Services to be displayed, Select 'Check Box'/Finish/"Release Buttons 1&2"/Start application within 5 seconds
