What Is Bluetooth Peripheral Device?
Nov 3, 2009
I have a HP Compaq 6715b notebook with Vista Business, the OS preinstalled from HP. For some time ago I connected my Sony Ericsson mobile to the PC as a new Bluetooth device. During the installation, I was prompted to install missing drivers for devices named "Bluetooth Peripheral Device". I never found any drivers, and finally I ignored it. The installation was successful as far as I can see, I have never noticed special problems. However, when I look into My Computer > Device Manager, there is a listing under Other Devices, 2 "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" and 2 "Unknown Device", in total 4 devices, all missing drivers. A quick look at Google tells me that there are many others with HP machines in the same situation, HP obviously does not install these drivers for some reason. I contacted HP support in Scandinavia, but they didn't know anything about Bluetooth Peripheral Device. I see further in Device Manager that there is a HP Integrated Bluetooth module (together with Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator), maybe these are substitute for the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device"? Can anybody tell me more about this? Do these missing drivers exist, are they important, or should they just be ignored?

i have installed the correct driver for this belkin bluetooth usb dongle model: F8T012XX1 but in device manager, it has the belkin device and microsoft bluetooth enumerator, which is great. but when u get further down the list. it has a tab named "other devices" and then a subtab with "bluetooth peripheral device" which has an exclemation mark on it. i have searched for driver software using the update service but it cant find no update. i have looked for the name of the manufacturer but found nothing.i then disabled the unknown device, and sent a picture to my mobile phone. which confirmed that it was not the belkin bluetooth device. so i uninstalled the unknown device, restarted the computer. then when i logged in, it said that it had found a new device and wanted me to find the CD that came with it.

I have a Dell XPS M1330 laptop with Dell TrueMobile 355 Bluetooth. Recently my computer has had problems with detecting any Bluetooth device I've tried to connect. I was wondering if anyone knew what I should do. The only thing I've tried is uninstalling and reinstalling all the drivers

I recently bought the Microsoft Wireless Desktop 7000 keyboard/mouse combo. It is bluetooth driven and comes with a bluetooth dongle that plugs in via USB. When I plug it in, it detects the hardware and beings a 4 step 'new device software installation'. The first 2 pass, then it comes to installing a "base system device" and fails. I do not believe it is recognizing the dongle correctly and this is where my problem sits. I can manually install the driver through device manager for "microsoft tranceiver v3.0 for bluetooth" which is what it is stickered as, but even doing this does not get it working properly.
I am running Vista x64 Ultimate, I have all the latest MS software for this media package installed, and it also links to a Vista hotfix -- KB925528. When I try to install this it says "this update does not apply to your system". It's possible I have previously installed this via windows update, but if not then I don't know why it says that.

I have a USB WD 1T external hard drive that was originally FAT32. I formatted it under NTFS and everything worked perfect and I was able to move files to it. But When I rebooted, the external is no longer visible in Windows Explorer. When I connect it via USB, my notebook (Acer Aspire 6920, Vista Home Premium) sees a usb peripheral connected, but shows no ID.

Can not get my HP 7400 scanner to work after upgrading to Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Not the hardware - works fine under XP pro using same hardware configuration. Did a clean install, installed motherboard BIOS updates, scanner BIOS updates, Vista updates and the correct driver from HP. The scanner installed and Device Manager says device is working properly. When I try to scan, scanner initializes, starts to scan then locks up. Then can no longer be seen. ASUS M2N-E motherboard with AMD dual core. Other than that Vista works OK with the rest of my system

I know this is a repetitive topic, but I can not seem to figure this one out. It is a HP Laptop DV9815nr. I do not know much about it as it is not mine, but the problem is the audio was cutting out and now there is nothing. The computer is not recognizing any type of audio device installed. Even in Device Manager, there is no option for Sound, game and controllers. I have tried downloading the driver and installing, but no luck there.

I'm running Home Premium 64 on a Sony Vaio Laptop (CS170F). I'm having a curious problem: Yesterday I plugged into the machine the dongle of my wireless logitech mouse, and for some reason the machine said "Your unknown device is ready to use" (my OS is in spanish, the messages may not be accurately translated). Since then, an annoying message pops every few seconds warning about an "unrecognized USB device", that "didn't work as expected". The best part is this, if I click on the tray icon, sometimes the informative dialog window is emply, an other times shows all the USB ports in the system plus one extra with a "unknown UBS device", even without any device plugged into the system. I've tryed removing the unknown device from the device manager, but it shows up again.

I had been running Vista Ultimate x64 for a few months and recently found that I can only use the original USB mouse?! Installation of any USB mouse would show a new "USB Human Interface Device" in Device Manager but it just won't work. Installation of the very same model of my original mouse didn't work neither. So basically I am stick with the current mouse?

I went to turn it on this morning, I just had a black screen showing the following words;
Press F2 to run
Press F11 to boot menu
Auto detecting PRI Master Atapai CDROM.
It then went to reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key. I went into the BIOS to change the boot order and inserted my Vista home premium 32bit. I then got windows is loading in files. After a short while I got the black start up screen with Microsoft Corporation but after a few seconds it just froze. Moments later it went to a blue screen with white writing part of which said the following; A PROBLEM HAS BEEN DETECTED AND WINDOWS HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN TO PREVENT DAMAGE TI YOUR COMPUTER.

Is any one having any problems with Bluetooth(HP9000 notebook) connecting to the Motorola RAZR v3i cell phone? Is there a new driver for Vista SP2. Do I need a new driver? Until recently(SP2 or update for Motorola phone tools) it all worked fine. I have gotten new software, uninstalled and reinstalled several times and still when the notebook boots the cell phone go's crazy(The bluetooth on the cell phone should not activate until I start the controlling software which is Motorola phone tools).
Even with the problems the connection still allow me to transfer data and manage the phone directory using the notebook/cell phone bluetooth connection. On the cell phone the bluetooth earpiece works fine. Is any one else experiencing such a problem??

I have read some of the add ons that sp2 will have. One of which is bluetooth capabilities. If my pc does not have bluetooth will it have bluetooth when sp2 is released. Will I still need to buy a 3rd party device that will allow me to use bluetooth. I am having a hard time figuring this one out.

I can't get WFS to successfully use the fax modem on my mobile phone over Bluetooth. The modem and Bluetooth connection are working fine outside WFS and I can successfully connect to a VPN over the internet using the mobile phone's modem via Bluetooth. I just can't think what could possibly be the problem. Has anyone else tried to set up their mobile phone as a fax modem over Bluetooth?
By the way, my carrier is T-mobile. I have already called them and they have confirmed that fax and data is enabled on my account. I'm using a Nokia 6233 but I don't think that should be relevant because I can already us the modem over Bluetooth to connect to the internet.

The update to Bluetooth in SP2 fixes it: now it does not work. Networking has been improved as well: I have been staring at the spinning circle for more than 5 minutes while trying to change sharing permissions on a folder. Actually I am not changing sharing, because according to Vista the file is already shared with everyone. The problem is that no one else on the network can see the file.
Microsoft has also addressed shutdown: now my laptop hangs and will not shut down unless I manually kill the power. I have migrated one of my main machines to Windows 7 already: Win7 appears to be the real deal. How, after all these years, can Microsoft still turn the offal that is Vista into an ever worse compilation of woe and misery? I sure hope the uninstall works: if I have to reformat and reinstall I am moving to the Win 7 RC.

I currently use a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ56GN/B laptop. It comes with an integrated Bluetooth v2.0+EDR connection. It worked for the 1st year just fine but recently i have absolutely no connection with my bluetooth headphones. The only change that i have initiated on my laptop since then was installing some software for my Sony Ericsson mobile phone.. i think after that i lost connectivity with my bluetooth headphones. I have ensured that i am using an up to date driver (RFCOMM) and the device is enabled.

I am attempting to share my internet connection with a Palm TX which communicates with my PC via Bluetooth. When I try to enable ICS there is no sharing tab present on my ethernet connection. The help says that this happens when you only have one network interface. However, I have two interfaces, the ethernet adapter and the Bluetooth adapter. How do I get ICS enabled?

I just bought a Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 to use with my Asus N70S Laptop which is on Vista 64-bit SP2, with integrated bluetooth. For some reason none of my bluetooth devices (my cell phone, and the mouse) will be discovered. I've set the bluetooth settings to "Discoverable" etc., and the correct services are enabled. Nothing comes up on the "Add a wireless device" page. I don't know what I have to do to get my devices to be discovered. I just saw that on my Device Manager, Bluetooth Remote Control, Bluetooth Hands-free Audio, Bluetooth Hands-free Audio., and Bluetooth Stereo Audio all have the yellow exclamation point on their icons.

I have an HP tx1320, 2GB RAM, dual core Turion64, 250GB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 video card, Broadom Bluetooth Radio onPort_0007.Hub_0001 (Address 00:1e:37:03:7f:53 HCI version 3.8489 LMP version3.16847), with Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator, running Vista Home Premium, Office 2007. Frequently, when I change to a different window or program changes (not on program launch), my Bluetooth mouse and keyboard stop working until I move the onboard laptop mouse and keyboard for a few keystrokes and mouse movements. After that, it goes back to normal, only to occur again several times during the day. I have a Crackberry with Bluetooth, generally enabled but not necessarily talking with my headset, as I generally do not wear that when in the office.

I have a problem with my Bluetooth Headphones and Vista. I would like to use my Nokia BH-501 (Bluetooth) as a wireless headset for Skype, MSN or any other voice programs available. Generally, I do not have problem paring headset with the computer. I can easily establish connection between computer and device but that is all. Computer under Bluetooth settings recognize device and installation is done. I use Realtek HD Audio with latest driver. Once device is paired with computer, I do not know how to make it work. If I log on MSN, Skype, etc. under sound preference my headset is not on the list so I can’t select it. Also in Realtek HD Audio Manager there is no option to add new device.

After installing the Dell BT radio, the device manager indicates hardware operable and up-to-date driver. Vista control panel shows the BT icon but clicking on it gives nothing. An instantaneous indication of the activity cursor appears, but no dialog box and no error message. It is as though there is only placeholder code giving a return.

I've been using the MS Bluetooth Notebook 5000 mouse with my HP notebook that has a built-in bluetooth transmitter. Though the automatic discovery never worked between the two but after manually adding the mouse after each bootup, the mouse worked fine before the SP2 upgrade. Since then the mouse doesn't show up in the paring window at all.
