The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.
Well, Widcomm doesn't "typically" let you just download their software. You need a license, which comes with most BT adapters. You are mostly left at the mercy of hardware vendors to get Widcomm software updates.
Even if you found a driver update from google or something chances are the license data wouldn't correspond with your BT adapter.
However, if you go to HP's website you can grab the Vista Widcomm BT driver (version 6.0.1.3100) which should also support XP, according to the .ini. And since it has the license file for your BT adapter it will actually let you install it.
Problems? See this thread at archive.org.
