    Guys, have you been successful installing the drivers for the Atheros Bluetooth adapter AR3011 on Windows 7 x64?

    I got and installed Bluetooth_Atheros_6.21.0329.0302_W7x86W7x64_A.zip from the Acer site and bt-7.0.2.13-win7.zip from the Atheros.cz site and they both completed successfully. AthBtTray.exe and BtvStack.exe are running. My laptop is the 1830T-6661

    The device status in Device Manager says, "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)"
