Which bluetooth driver do you recommend for a T41 with bluetooth II ?. I'm currently running the Microsoft 5.1.2600.2180 driver. It works 'ok' on XP with my bluetooth mouse, but occasionally the mouse skips and also looses connection.

Personally, I recommend the Widcom drivers. See my posts in the following thread.

Thanks for the direction. I tried installing the Widcom drivers yesterday (bluetooth did not work at all), but I will do it again following your instructions. You mentioned in the linked thread to "download and install the latest bluetooth III" driver. I am assuming that since I have a T41 (vs. your T42) that I need the bluetooth II driver? If so, the latest version I found on the Lenovo site is from 2004 (hardly the latest

)

Is this the Widcom driver that you are talking about?

Yeah, that's the same one I used on my T42.

I don't have good luck with Widcomm driver. I use the Toshiba stack on my T42 with internal bluetooth. It works great.

Toshiba stack? Do you have a link to that driver?

This is the newest Toshiba stack. I am using a much older version.
