AirmanPika Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 (edited) hid2hci does not function with Vista. You'll need to get ahold of the apple bluetooth kicker drivers to get it going in vista. There's tips on how to do that on the forums.

lotech Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 hid2hci does work with vista! I was also have issues with BT on my MBP 17 CoreDuo with it never keeping the pairing of my Keyboard (although I think the mouse worked - no wheel though). It was causing me no end of grief - everytime my screen saver would start it would drop the pairing and never store it. Accidentaly I found that when I booted over to OSX and paired them there - it seemed to stick in Vista. So since that fateful day I haven't had to pair my KB or Mouse again - and once Vista boots I click on a short cut to "C:\Windows\hid2hci.exe 05ac 1000" and it then gives me all the extras of my KB + Mouse (wheel, media keys etc..). I have to kick the BT everytime I start up but even before it is 'kicked' the kb will work for entering my password. 95% there as far as bluetooth in Vista goes.
