| Hi,
I have just installed a Belkin F8T008uk Bluetooth USB adaptor to my Win
xp PC.
I followed the installation instructions including the updating of the
driver for sp2 but cannot get the thing to communicate.
Everytime I search for devices an error "Your Bluetooth device cannot
start the search for devices" is displayed.
My Bluetooth phone can find the PC but after I have entered the
passcode for the phone and also in the popup box on the PC the pairing
fails.
Can anyone advise.
Thanks very much.
A complete Bluetooth novice.
Phil.

| Hi,
Unfortunately I have the same problem with my Belkin Bluetooth USB
adaptor/ HP Pavillion PC. I also get the message:"Your Bluetooth device
cannot start the search for devices".
I have tried with various BIOS down/upgrades, I have tried to install
W2000 plus a lot of other things. My Pavillion does not have SP2.
I can initiate the connection from my PDA, but I cannot read available
services on the PDA from the PC.
I have installed the same Bluetooth adaptor on 3 other computers
without problems. 2 computers had SP2 installed. 1 computer had W2000.
I also need help !!!
Best regards - Carl Otto

| Hi Carl,
After contacing Belkin tech support by phone and email, they suggested
that the adaptor may be faulty.
I sent the adaptor back to Belkin who then sent me a replacement.
The replacement they sent me works just fine.
Best regards.
Phil.
