Hello,
So here is my problem/resolution...
I have a Zonet Bluetooth V 2.0 dongle Supported with Broadcom WIDCOMM Drivers. My original install CD of course did not work with Vista.
I had it removed during my install of Vista RC1 and after getting up and running inserted it and Vista would recognize it as a USB Device but didn't have drivers for it.
When I would reboot my PC and load Vista it would lock up after the loading screen with the green bar... (XP still loaded fine)
There was even a time where if i inserted it while fulled booted in Vista it would lock my PC up solid and I would have to remove it and cold boot my PC.
To make a very, very long story short...after about 10 different versions of drivers, I finally found one that works...I don't remember where I found it but here is the filename...
Widcomm.32Bit.v5.0.1.2500.Incl.Lic.Patch.rar
I still have the file so if someone needs it here is the link
The site that I found it on also had the 64bit version...(don't have that one)
I also, after getting the drivers installed had problems with the license.dat file that WIDCOMM uses but that is what the patch is for
I now have approx. 2,000,000 days left in my evaluation copy of this software.
This was very frustrating, and took a few nights/mornings to fix so if anyone else is having problems let me know and maybe I can help...
Good luck!!!
