In your first post you did not tell us what version of Windows you had, it
could have been Home or Pro or even Media Centre and knowing the version of
OS (operating system) can sometimes make a lot of difference with regards
the help that is needed.
As far as I know you would need a Bluetooth Dongle to be able to use your
phone with your computer I don't know if you can download the necessary
drivers needed via the web, one of the experts would have to tell you that I
haven't had the need to look.
I'm pretty sure the software for my dongle was Widcomm or something like
that not sure of the spelling without delving into my system to look it up
but try a Google search for Bluetooth and you should find information to
help you out while you wait for one of the others to see your post.
Good luck.
