Cannot install Bluetooth keyboard and mouse

My Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse Elite for Bluetooth has stopped working for
no apparent reason. It still works with WinXp which is on the same computer.
I have tried to re-install the drivers (6.1) and it just doesn't respond.
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

RE: Cannot install Bluetooth keyboard and mouse

Sam,

In Device Manager, under the Properties of the hardware concerned, uninstall
each of them and reboot. Leave everything connected. The idea is to have
Windows detect and reinstall everything when it reboots, and hopefully this
action will fix the problem. Post back on results.
