How do I get Bluetooth capabilities on my Windows XP?

Answer 1

There are adapters you can buy that just plug into your USB input on your computer giving it Bluetooth. I have included a link below to show you what one would look like. It works like a thumb drive where all you have to do is plug in it, and that's it.

Answer 2

Bluetooth is extremely cool but it's pretty tricky to get things working the first time, so I can understand your frustration. The trick is that you need to put your phone into bluetooth broadcast mode, then launch the Windows XP Bluetooth Setup Wizard, then it should work.First off, if your PC has bluetooth, you should have an icon on your desktop for "My Bluetooth Places". Click on it, then launch the Bluetooth Setup Wizard. You'll see.You'll want to choose the second option, "I want to find a specific Bluetooth device and configure how this computer will use its services." Click next and your computer will start looking for your Bluetooth device.
