Purchased generic a dongle from eBay vendor "yallstore". When I complained that no drivers were included, he gave me (in broken english) a URL to download v6. When I try to access either one of my Plantronics BT headsets either with Skype or by manually unmuting in the BT cotnrol, the computer either reboots or BSODs. Skype sees the Bluetooth SCO Audio device, but it is greyed out when the headset is muted. Tried the "free-but-not-free-trial" version of v8, same results. Rolled back to v6 and the dongle can access my cell phone for file transfers just fine, but both headsets still reboot my computer. I am running XP Pro SP3 with a myraid of other USB devices which all work fine, and both BT headsets have been tested and found to work well with my cell phone. I have been a computer technician since the days of MS-DOS 3.3 and Windows 3.0, so I do have a clue what I am doing. I believe the problem to be related to the Bluetooth audio gateway. This is software hell, I am NOT impressed.
