Re: [FTC]: Bluetooth Problem with LabView/FTC Controller Station

We had a similar problem with one laptop when we were at a demo over the summer. Our Vista laptop had no problems, but an XP laptop would not work (even with a brick that had worked in the past). Apparently the XP laptop had automatic updates enabled and one of the updates affected the Bluetooth. To correct the problem I had to go to services in administrative tools and change the logon for the Bluetooth Support Service to a Local System Account. I found this solution after an Internet search related to being unable to connect to Bluetooth devices.

The laptop was "connected" to the brick but was unable to use the virtual serial port associated with the NXT.

Let us know if any of these solutions work.
