    Hi,

    I have an asus g1s laptop with vista and nokia n80. I used to send files to my mobile and other mobiles with send file from the bluetooth all the time. But then i installed nokia pc suite and my bluetooth is paired to my mobile (it shows my mobile in the send file operation). When i try browse to see if i can send to other mobiles nothing shows up, not even mine. But if i click send to the default one which is mine it sends it. Also the nokia pc suite when i try to connect with bluetooth i get the error "Cannot use the connection type. Check that all the needed hardware, software and drivers are available. I thinks there is something wrong with my vista bluetooth drivers. Btw the bluetooth Devices in the Control Panel when i try to use it doesnt work.

    Can anyone help????

    Thanks

    Nothing of the above worked. I tried the CD before. But i found the solution. In the device manager i uninstalled anything bluetooth related and then click refresh. Then windows worked there magic and everything worked fine.

    Thanks for your answers :)
