Plug-and-play Bluetooth?
Plug it in, and use Windows Updates to look for the driver.

I feel that the wording on the side of the IntelliMouse box, the System
Requirements are XP with SP2 is perhaps trying to tell you something g although I thought that both Wn2000 and XP were supported systems for the Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer for Bluetooth - or at least that's what it says at http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mo.../Download.mspx with only the Microsoft Bluetooth apparently being XP only. Sorry not to be able to help. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Brian Kraft wrote: Mike M wrote: Have you tried the CD that came with the dongle or didn't you get one as I think you should have. I have a laptop that is running XP SP2 and it has internal Bluetooth 2.0 capability installed. I bought a Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer for Bluetooth for this laptop. The dongle and CD were not needed; all I had to do is make the mouse discoverable, and the laptop did the rest. I would like to make my desktop running WinMe discoverable too. When I search for a driver in Device Manager, there is none found on the IntelliMouse CD. On the side of the IntelliMouse box, the System Requirements are XP with SP2. So I have an unused Microsoft Bluetooth 2.0 dongle, USB 2.0, and Microsoft WinMe OS but no driver or software. Is there no downloadable driver for this Microsoft wireless transceiver dongle that will work on WinMe? In stores there are USB Bluetooth 2.0 transceivers for sale, made by companies like Belkin and such, which include WinMe in system requirements. I was trying to avoid having to buy another one, since I already have one that came with the IntelliMouse. |
