When I plug in my Bluetooth Dongle I get a pop up in the lower left corner of my screen that says: "One of the USB drives attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem click this message." I click it and it comes up with a list of devices attached to my PC and a suggestion that maybe I should remove it and try again. This does not work. Can I "trick" my PC into running it? Even though it is unrecognized?
I have Windows 7 and the dongle says (on the packaging) merely that it is a "Bluetooth USB Dongle".
I have installed drivers that came with dongle. I have also downloaded 4 others, all to no avail.
I was poking around a bit and I found this: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
Does this help?

you need the drivers for the dongle
you can't use it if not recognised
cant be tricked

try installing driver and software for your device 1st. Then plug in device. If it supported by your version of windows7, It will be detected and setup. Some devices(older) wont support 64bit version.
