Bluetooth on a D600 doesnt work?
Hi!
Having a problem with the onboard Bluetooth device on my D600. All of a sudden I get the following warning on startup of the system:
My Bluetooth Places could not connect to the Bluetooth stack COM server (BtStackServer.exe)
When I answer this warning a error message the following message appear:
explorer.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close, (and the send report/dont send report buttons appear).
I have tried to reinstall all the drivers for the BT device, but it doesnt work!
What to do........???

I do think that a refund IS a very reasonable request to make.

Hello fellow D600 & D400 owners.
We have a bunch of d400 & d600 at work, and have bought them since they came out last year. Although Dell only lists its Bluetooth device as Bluetooth Internal 300 card, there are actutally several revisions of this chip with different firmware settings. And guess what, they don't all work with the same driver.. Shocking huh?
If starting with a blank installation this always works for me:
1. Get the old A02 driver at:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/format.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=LAT_PNT_PM_D600&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=3122&devlib=5&category=5&releaseid=R65891
2. Then if you have the newest revision this will prob come up as "no bluetooth device detected". Then upgrade with the new A05 driver found at: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/format.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&SystemID=LAT_PNT_PM_D600&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=3122&devlib=5&category=5&releaseid=R82522
Please not that the A05 driver is a "stack only driver". So you can't just install the A05, you need the A02 aswell. At least if you plan running software like Nokia Pc suite that needs bluetooth widcomm drivers which are not included in the A05 version.
Let me know how this works out for you

I think this thread has primary been casued by physically broken chips. Mine, for example, came loose off teh side of teh motherboard. So, i am not sure the driver issue is the root of the problem.
Still, your infomation is useful! thanks!
