Thanks for the reply!

Are you using the drivers that came with the device or Windows native ones?

Which adapter do you have?

R U using the latest drivers for this? Dont always assume that what
comes in the box on the CD is the latest and greatest.

I have heard of people having problems with the Linksys Bluetooth.
A freind of mine uses the IO Gear one, and the latest drivers from
there web site, and we have had NO problems from time of install to
date.



I have the MS Bluetooth Mouse and Run XP Pro W/SP2, but I also run XP
LITE, and clean out all the garbage that MS puts in.
