Using the following page you can get the Bluetooth Stack in Windows Server 2008 x64: Gil's Blkog: Installing the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack on Windows Server 2008If you look at the comments you see the comment from Andrew Haswell who describes how to get it working in Windows Server 2008 x86 too!

Gil,
Great instructions, i have just used them to get bluetooth working on a dell m1210 laptop running 32-bit Server 2008 by changing NTx86...1 entries to NTx86...3

Hope this method also works for you!

Yeah and some people [including me] prefer to use the Microsoft Stack instead of Widcomm Stack anyway because they are much more basic and lightweight
