My Dell Mini Forum

Hey guys - I am trying to pair my Blackberry Storm to my Mini 9 so I can use its tether feature.

I plug my blackberry in and pair it to bluetooth and Win 7 a driver needs to be installed for the Bluetooth. Kind of funky because the bluetooth works with my MS mouse. Is there a Bluetooth driver I can install for Windows 7 using my Dell Mini 9?

yeah...I haven't figured this out yet either. I dual boot Mac OS and Win 7 and Mac OS works, Win 7 bleh.

Actually I'm talking about bluetooth, the rest of Win 7 is OK.

If it's just your BlackBerry that you're having trouble with, check out this thread. I'm not sure if it's applicable to 32bit or not but let me know if it works for you. I'm having issues with getting my MS BT mouse working but once I get that figured out I also want to get my Storm to tether via BT.

Woot. I have BT tethering working right now on my Storm in OS X and Windows 7. I'm in Win7 typing this right now.

I don't know from Win 7 BT, but there might be something here:

BTW -- your signature says you are running WinXP. Which is it?
