irprops.cpl is included in my bluetooth.7z installer...
Are you sure that you really installed MS bth stack from bluetooth.7z before installing Lenovo's drivers?

Hi Asciiwolf,

I can confirm that I had run the bluetooth.7z first. I remember the messages about removing the test mode text and rebuilding the MUI.

I re-ran the bluetooth.7z file from the command line as administrator and then rebooted my machine.

Everything appears to be working now. Thanks for the help.

Can anyone tell me, how to make BT working? I installed that stack, but I got Sharing Violation during "Installing Windows7 Bluetooth Stack", it continues but "Registering BT Stack" shows "ERROR Cannot create a file that already exists". I got BT-253 in my notebook, cannot install drivers after I install the stack.

And what is that patch and Rebuilding MUI cache good for? A Readme would be great...


I used to have Server 2008 (non-R2), I got BT working by myself, but R2 seems to be a bit tricky.

Ad 1.) You probably have other BT stack (or its parts) allready installed...
Ad 2.) Well, BTH drivers included in my installer are unsigned so the installer must enable "driver signing test mode" to make it works. But this also enables annoying "Test Mode" message shown in right corner on the desktop. This patch modify one of the system .mui file and deletes all of the "Test Mode" strings so the "Test Mode" message disappears...

AsciiWolf, thanks for the great job you are doing.

I am following your procedure on enabling Broadcom BT dongle: I have installed the stack update and have downloaded the latest patched Broadcom drivers that you posted Jun 27th. However, the installer is still complaining about "incompatible version of Windows". I have verified the checksums and it is exactly the one that you posted. Am I doing something wrong?

You must have MS Bluetooth stack installed (using my installer) and enabled (Bluetooth dongle connected and drivers installed) before installing Broadcom drivers.

Trying to use a Plantronics PLT 510 as a headset is not working so well. The device will connect, but none of the drivers for it will install. I saw a few places online that this needs the updated Broadcom drivers to work, but after downloading AsciiWolf's Broadcom driver, copying the inf stuff over to the windows\inf directory, and running setup, I am greeted by a message stating "No Bluetooth device was detected. Please make sure that your Bluetooth device is plugged in properly in order to continue installation."

Any ideas?
