Stereo bluetooth headset trouble

I'm a bit new to using bluetooth headsets on my pc.

I got a Motorola S305 stereo headset. I cannot get it to work on my thinkpad (x60). It works on the iphone. I believe it's AD2P

I've been reading forums, but cannot get anything to work. Can I get the S305 to work with original drivers or do i need to install other software? (like bluesoleil)

Thanks

You need the right drivers, and they need to be installed properly.

Here is what worked for me on my T42. Your X60 might be similar.

While I agree that it's a problem with the drivers, I would hold up on spending money on something like bluesoleil. I have a motorola BT stereo headset that is AD2P and I too had drivers problem under Vista. I had to buy bluesoleil in order to get stereo working. However, now that I'm Win 7 it works perfectly fine with the BT drivers from Lenovo. Have you tried the simple stuff like reinstalling the BT drivers?
