This is a double issue.


I have a Toshiba QosmioG30-163running MCE XP SP3. I am re-installing
the drivers after a corrupted registry problem.


snipped for brevity

Looks like the registry problem is still there,
I'd perform a system restore


Many thanks - hmm - I'd thought of that then I found this solution:

After battling all weekend I finally got the BT stack to install.

Apparently the problems this was caused by the Windows XP (SP2) stack
conflicting with the
Toshiiba stack - a common problem apparently.

The solution is he

http://bluetoothinstaller.com/

The exact problem is described he

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/840635

However this appears to be an issue with both XP and Win 7 and
specifically the bth.inf file.

I raised the above issue with Toshiba Tech. Support (who produced the
stack and drivers) who were useless.

So now the damn BT does work - although its a bit clunky.

I guess this is yet another case of Microsoft and Toshiba (et al) not
bothering to communicate with each other and own the problem of
conflicting s/w.
