BCM20702A0 driver

[PatrickRobinson]

I can't believe how bad this POS USB bluetooth adapter is. On install it prompts for driver update and then fails repeatedly. Absolutely ZERO Insignia web support (go figure). Please help! Thanks, Patrick

Have you tried the Dell Website for the Driver ?...

You can get the driver from here

Setup "warns" no Bluetooth device detected

Have you any errors in the Device Manager ? ...

Have you recently Re-Installed Windows ? ...

Does your Function Keys work ? ...

No Bluetooth device detected. When I unplug the device I get the usual unplugged tone. However, when I plug it back in, I get three quick tones

Yes, I have recently reinstalled 7 pro.
There are no errors until I plug the adapter in at which point the error icon appears over BCM20702A0.
Computer is currently installing 66 updates.

See if the Updates help if not let us know ...

Will do....I appreciate the help!
What are your thoughts regarding the three quick tones when I plug in the device rather than the normal windows "sound".

Have had them Beeps before in my case was a Hardware error ... Was fixed though with the proper Driver ...

The setup still fails to see the device. The Broadcom setup recognizes the device but shortly in to the "validation" I get "failed to update Bluetooth software" message.

 

[PatrickRobinson]

Are the "software" update and driver update synonymous?

 

[PatrickRobinson]

Broadcom message (progress bars frozen)

Hmmm....I was not opening the folder to win32 folder and running install

 

[maxie]

Okay does it now show in the Device Manager ?

 

[PatrickRobinson]

Good grief....so many files in this win32 folder. Do I run install, setup, ?.?.?

 

[maxie]

Yeah give it a try ...

 

[PatrickRobinson]

When I run the setup, (setup.exe) the computer does nothing.

Well, I went to the site provided, installed etc.....nothing.
I had the device working fine 2 days ago. This is a Dell Inspiron 1012 which came with 7 starter which I upgraded to professional years ago. Today I chose to restored rom factory image to clean things up, and then I reinstalled 7 Pro....now all this. It doesn't make sense. What next?
