Go to www.belkin.com, click Support Center at top of left column, on the
page that appears, under product support, select "Bluetooth Products," if
this is a dongle, select Dongles then selct your model, the page to which it
takes you should have inforamtion as well as drivers.

That's where to look for future reference, however, there may not yet be
Vista compatibel drivers available in which case, you will need to contact
Belkin to see if they will be supporting your product in Vista and when
drivers might be available.

I agree with Michael but in addtion, I can say that Belkin support says that
they are Vista 32 & 64 bit compatible. I am currently using the F8T012-013
driver from the web-site in 64-bit Vista without any issues. You don't need
the original cd either.
Good luck.

I have a Belkin F8T013 Bluetooth dongle. I downloaded the drivers and I was able to get my Microsoft Bluetooth Keyboard to work, but I can't get my Bluetooth Mouse to work. They both work on my XP computer but not on my Vista. Let me know how things work out for you.

hi downloaded drivers etc from belkin site all works perfect thxs.regarding getting youre blootooth mouse to work.before i purchased this vista pc.i bought the same unit a hp pc 4gig one.and asked to have vista tacken off.and xp service pack 2 put on instead.as i use certain programms that would and will only run on xp..i completly had the vista tacken of .xp installed .but the wireless mouse would not work properly,and had to take it back to shop and get same model but with vista on instead..the pc guy in shop told me that with the hp pc that the drivers for a wirless mouse had to b put in temp files etc something like that and they had to wipe the partion bit with the re boot system in it .but this completly mucked it up........................so now have a 4 gig 32 bit vista premium set up.and all works great except certain things.that this forum and its members are slowly getting me the answres thxs to all
