on the cd theres is a file located in the prereq\bthStack\enu folder called q323183_wxp_sp2_x86_enu.exe. this is the winxp sp2 hotfix that installs the bluetooth stack that is required.
if you run it it gives you an error, dont click out of the error, go find the folder it extracts to the hard drive with all the files, for some reason on mine it extracted to the d drive, it made a folder with a name that was a long string the first time and the second time the folder name was the number 8, anyways copy that folder somewhere and then click ok to the error, now you have the files you need to edit.
in the folder you just copied, go to the update folder and open the update.inf file
this is the file to change i changed the build numbers from 5 and 1 and 2600 to 5 and 2 and 3790 and the 3 entries that say 256 are the service pack value (1 for xp) i just erased them and left them blank. save that file and then run update.exe
in that folder. it should now install the bluetooth stack.
it makes a "wireless link" control panel entry i went there, double clicked it and hit add. it didnt detect the devices automatically unless i pushed the channel buttons on the keyboard and mouse then it installed fine. intellitype and intellipoint on the cd wont install, go get intellipoint and intellitype 5 from the microsoft.com/hardware site they install fine on server. then everything ran peachy. im quite impressed with the range of this set too.
