    First of all, i am confused as to where to put this thread.. finally decided its a driver issue with vista.. so here i go..

    m using vista HP.. Dell E1505.. Bluetooth 355 (Ver 2.0 thingy)..

    i started using bluetooth only yesterday .. initially i cud add devices but the installation showed that it cud not find the blurtooth peripheral device.. but nonetheless i cud transfer some files to my phone..

    and then i decided to update my driver from dell.. :( after that my system is detecting and attaching my phone, but its not showing up as an attached device.. and hence cant transfer any files..

    tried to remove all the drivers and start all over.. no use.. no clue what to do..

    HEELPP!!
