    How to reinstate MSFT's own Bluetooth Drivers Stack?

    I'm referring to the stack that powers MSFT's Keyboard Elite for BT and
    Intellimouse Explorer for Bluetooth. In device manager as:
    Bluetooth
    Enumerator............................................windows\system\driver\bthenum.sys
    Wireless Transceiver for
    Bluetooth.........................windows\system32\drivers\bthport.sys
    .........................windows\system32\drivers\bthusb.sys
    .........................windows\system32\fsquirt.exe
    Reason I ask is that I stupidly installed a Widcomm Bluetooth Transceiver
    (for my Motorola cellphone) and I know if I uninstall the software it will
    take ALL Bluetooth stuff with it. The hardware wont work and has to be
    reinstalled and then Windows can't find the drivers online/offline or
    whatever.
    I do not have the luxury of System Restore as I'm in a dual boot and haven't
    yet managed to configure Bitlocker protection.
    I've gone through this exercise once already and had to reinstall Vista. I
    thought (idiot I know) that I would be able to get around it this time.

    No matter - by searching the same drive it was found. Vista acts in strange
    ways sometimes. Now if only MSFT would update their driver stack to
    encompass all the different functions of Bluetooth.
