Hi Ester. Now we are on track. It worked under xpsp2 and till recently in sp xp3. I had unplugged my brailliant for a while and when I set it back up, I could not get it to work. It cannot get a port. Yes, I can use it in osx just fine. I want to use it in windows as a blutetooth device which I have been doing for quite some time now. In addition, it seems that the bt problem is endemic to all of my bt devices so it's deffinitely something going bad in the bt stack but I cannot figure out how to fix it. Nothing for leopard on this so far but some interesting stuff for bootcamp 1.1.

I haven't been keeping up with all the recent posts the .Mac transition started yesterday, and I took a break in reading. (For a brief period I got messages that posts were sent, but that they weren't being saved in the "Sent" messages folder.) You wrote earlier: <begin excerpt> I've recently discovered and am still working an issue with bootcamp and bluetooth. It seems that even though I can pair my brailliant 24 with my system, I cannot get it to communicate with the os. It will not register its activation at start up or closure at shut down. I've removed both the Microsoft ennumerator and the Apple bluetooth drivers and reinstalled them to no avail. Any assistance would be appreciated. I'm using jaws as my screen reader but this has not heretofore been an issue. <end excerpt> Is the braillant only supported through USB under VoiceOver? I'm assuming that one of the reasons that you're using Boot Camp is to run this device at full capaibility through Bluetooth. Did this work under xpsp2?
