    did the BT Doggle come with a drive disc? what does your DEVICE MANAGER say?

    Hi,

    You need to check what Zer0ink said and ensure you have installed the drivers properly. Then again check what Zer0ink said and check in your device manager.

    Do you see an icon for your bluetooth device? Does it have a yellow / red icon over it? If so right click on the icon with the yellow / red mark and select "uninstall". Once this has completed put the dongle back in and it should pick it up and continue installing the drivers. You may need to refresh device manager or select "scan for hardware changes".

    Let us know how you get on
