Hi, I bought a USB Bluetooth Adapter to add bluetooth capability to my laptop but for some reason it recognizes it in the device manager but with a yellow caution symbol over it. I do not think its working since theres no bluetooth in my system tray or anything. It says all the bluetooth drivers are up to date too. It recognizes it as a "Bluetooth Wireless Radio" device. I can see its working too by the little red light it gives off when plugged into my USB port. Something to do with using Windows 8 or 8.1 perhaps?

Any fixes to try to make my laptop fully recognize this thing?

Also, there is no manufacturer website as it is a cheap china thing BUT the reviews for it were very good so thats why i got it.

Any help would be nice.

Also any help and suggestions to a USB bluetooth device that actually DOES work with Windows 8/8.1. Any links would be nice that are inexpensive. : ]


Thank you. : ]
