#1 Post by masterus » Thu Mar 20, 2008 9:38 am

Hello everyone,

I need to get drivers for Fast-Infrared and Bluetooth in my T43.
For Bluetooth I need: Microsoft Bluetooth Support file for Integrated Bluetooth IV .

Vista didn't install drivers for all of those? You can get them on the lenovo downloads page but Vista should have either had drivers already or downloaded them from Windows update automatically.
Current - Thinkpad T410si - Core i3 330m, 4GB, 250GB 5400RPM, WXGA+, FPR, BT, Camera, DVDRW, Gobi2000, Win7 Pro x32
Past - Thinkpad T410 - T400 - T61 - T60 - T43 - T42 - T41 - T40 - T23 - 600X

Hi,

Forgot to mention I don't need that drivers to Vista but to Windows Server 2008 Standard :)

pardon my ignorance but why do you need IRDA and bluetooth on a server?

Windows Server 2008 is not a supported OS for ThinkPads, so your are basically on your own as far as provisioning drivers for it.

The relevant ThinkPad Vista drivers will probably work under WS 2008, but Lenovo isn't going to do anything for you if they don't.

Cheers,

Bill B.

To Eric: Because I don't like having Unknown Devices and I'm trying to convert WS 2K8 into perfect workstation :)

To Bill: I know that WS 2K8 isn't supported so I'm doing this on my own responsibility..until now almost everything works quite good :)
