io-gear Bluetooth 2.1 USB Micro Adapter and Dell XPS435t-9000
Hi,
Does anyone know if this iogear-Bluetooth 2.1 USB Micro Adapter works with Dell XPS435T-9000? I could not connect to my Microsoft Bluetooth Moible 6000 Keyboard with the usb micro adapter. I went into service.msc and started the bluetooth and set it to automatic and right clicked my the bluetooth icon and tried to add my keyboard and nothing. I can find it on my iPhone and my son's macbook pro and but on my Dell. Any help would be appreciated?
Thanks, Jerry

iogear-Bluetooth 2.1 USB Micro Adapter GBU421 works with most all computers including Apple.
Try to make sure that Human Interface Devices service is started and set to automatic in services.msc.
Type services.msc in start search box, hit Enter.
In Services window, look for the Human Interface Devices and start the service and set to automatic.
You can download and install Intelli Type Pro 7.0 32-bit for Windows Vista and check if it helps.
Supported Operating Systems: - Windows 7- Windows Vista- Windows XP (32-bit only)Other:Hard Drive:- IntelliPoint for Windows:

Thanks!! It looks like there is a 8.0 Intelli Type Pro. I'm sure, I have that one on my PC already. Hopefully Saturday afternoon, I'll check it out and let you know.
Thanks again for your help,

I also replaced my usb micro-adapter with another GBU-421 and still having the same problems. Called Dell and they said it should work, called Mincrosoft and they said it should work. Called IOGear and there calling me back on Monday. I'm lost where to go from here, anybody have any ideas?
Thanks, Jerry

I just installed the medialink Bluetooth Adapter and this is the message I'm getting.

This isn't really a DELL issue but rather a non dell hardware issue.
I have used the IOGEAR product flawlessly with windows and Apple OSX.
