The main Bluetooth IC was CSR8510 A10U, K816MK404, whilst the other larger IC was CHK24C64, 6TS2009PA. After peering through a microscope for a few minutes I was able to determine the chips used. Unfortunately, this dongle does not have any discernable name to help determine the manufacturer hence, I decided to open it to see what chipset it had. The speaker manufacturer expects you to get it from the chipset vendor, and the chipset vendor sends you back to the manufacturer! I visited the Microsoft site multiple times only to find that it simply mentions the problem with the advice to find the driver from the speaker manufacturer. I downloaded and installed a whole bunch of programs mentioned on blogs and forums, none of which helped, except make my computer slower! Thanks! I then saw a whole bunch of YouTube tutorials, none of which had any solutions.
USB BLUETOOTH 4.0 DONGLE FOR MAC INSTALL
Another site wanted me to install a program that presumably scans the whole computer of any drivers, installs a virus, and steals passwords in the process. One site had me install the Intel PROset drivers, which did not work. I trawled the internet for a solution but could not find any. Android phones are able to connect and begin using them straightaway, without any additional software or configuration, therefore, I would expect my PC to operate in the same way, but it does not. The peripheral device driver usually comes with the device that you are connecting to, unfortunately there was no driver CD accompanying my China-manufactured speaker. I then installed the software in the accompanying CD but it did not solve the problem.
USB BLUETOOTH 4.0 DONGLE FOR MAC DRIVERS
A yellow exclamation mark near the Bluetooth peripheral device usually indicates that Windows was unable to find the necessary drivers for it. Whilst Windows 7 recognised the Bluetooth dongle in the USB port and automatically installed the necessary drivers for that, it was unable to find the drivers for the peripheral devices. This issue is with the OS and will therefore occur with almost all Bluetooth dongles, however I have decided to include a solution with this one as it is the most widely used. This particular dongle has a blueĭata light that I especially liked as it gives a visual indication of dataĪlthough this dongle and its drivers work fine, I discovered one problem that appears to be with the software, and in particular Windows 7 not installing the peripheral device drivers.
