Same story
Just ran into the dreaded Atheros Bluetooth Suite problem when trying to upgrade to Windows 8 from win7. I had uninstalled it years ago -- the Start Menus folders were still there, but empty. Program folder still there in all its glory. So I unchecked the boxes in msconfig, rebooted, renamed the folder, ran through registry like a lunatic, looking for anything named Atheros and xing it. Rebooted. Freaking thing ignored my renaming and repopulated the registry keys! Anyone got an answer yet? You would be an international hero, because this story is ALL OVER THE NET with no solutions except to clean install, and I have no time for that.
PS If anyone has any idea what devices use these drivers, that might help me puzzle it out. THANKS, this board is a godsend!
