    Okay. so basically I have the MX5000 bluetooth keyboard and I need to upgrade the BT software and the stack to WIDCOMM. Only thing is I'm not really what I should be doing. I thought it would just be a simple uninstall of w/e came with the W3J (Bluetooth Stack for Windows, wtf is that?) and an install of the WIDCOMM stack but it seems its not the case as according to this http://www.notebookforums.com/thread130179.html.

    Go a couple of posts down and the guy has a mini-guide.. seems pretty complicated.. I don't want to screw anything up so if any of you guys know what to do PLEASE LET ME KNOW!

    id say, install the drivers for ur laptop bluetooth and when u install the setpoint software, choose to use windows drivers instead of installing the widcomm drivers again. not sure if itll work since i dont own the laptop but i do got the combo.

    well the problem is I NEED the WIDCOMM drivers.. and SetPoint doesn't install them unless theres no other bluetooth driver alrready.. and i don't want to screw with my laptop so im not sure what to do (also you can't choose which drivers to use with setpoint, as far as I know)
