Satellite P750: Unable to install Bluetooth Stack driver on Windows 7 (x64)
Posted: 02-Jul-2011 14:31

Hello.

I own a Satellite P750-02T (Part no. *PSAY3A-02T001*).

In the order what I did:

1) I formatted its HDD and reinstalled OS to Windows 7 x64 Ultimate SP1.

Then I downloaded ONLY BIOS and the drivers from its Downloads page :

2) I updated its BIOS to v1.90 (the laptop came with v1.80)

3) I installed all the drivers:

both LAN and WiFi
Intel Chipset (latest available)
all video drivers (Intel HD Graphics, NVIDIA Graphics, and Intel HDMI)
Card Reader
Realtek HD Audio (latest)
Synaptics Touchpad
USB3.0
IR
TV-Tuner

However, I'm unable to install the Bluetooth driver (v8.00.06(T) )...

When I run setup from the above-mentioned page it partially detects 'Bluetooth USB Controller-10 from TOSHIBA' (USB\VID_0930&PID_0215&REV_001)
and then installation simply freezes displaying 'Installing the Bluetooth Driver. Please wait.' and stays like that forever...

I also tried downloading a driver from another location for TOSHIBA notebooks - v8.00.02(T):
and followed installation instructions displayed under 'Details'
but there was the same outcome - the setup simply freezes...

Installing Hotfix (*KB978258*) recommended there didn't work either - the message '+The update is not applicable to your computer+' pops up.
And I understand why - this Hotfix is already included into Service Pack 1 for MS Windows 7.

I spent hours searching on the Internet for a solution. Although there were some similar cases none of the recommendations actually worked. I tried installing:

WiFi driver before installing Bluetooth (someone suggested that those two are the parts of the same card);
resuming installation in Safe Mode;
Toshiba Value Added Package hoping those tools somehow will kick in.

Nothing worked...

It's interesting that when for the sake of experiment I tried to run installation for my generic Bluetooth adapter (using the driver for non-TOSHIBA notebooks) then everything run smoothly!

Using Bluetooth connection on this laptop is very crucial for me.
I hope I shall not have to return this wonderful notebook as I know TOSHIBA is one of the best manufactures and am sure there is a solution to this problem.

Thank you very much.
Evgeny.

Can you use FN+F8 key combination to enable/disable WLAN?
Can you also see BT symbol there?

Before you start BT stack installation try to enable BT module using FN+F8 key combination.

Generally speaking there should not be some problem with it. Toshiba BT stack is tested on al models offered by Toshiba and BT stack installation has, I think, nothing to do which Win7 version you use.

You must not return this notebook. All it must be done is right drivers, tools and utilities installation. Please note: BT stack is included in recovery image so BT must work.

I also must say that OS drivers, tools and utilities installation on Toshiba notebook must/should be installed in right order. Many tools cannot work alone and need to be installed on basic stuff that can be installed with other Toshiba specific tools.

Please send some feedback if this FN+F8 will work.

Thanks, I came across the "Fn-F8" suggestion too. I did try it before installing the driver and then during its installation; pressed the keys combination once or several times...
Same result. The installation simply freezes.

And no, there is no Bluetooth symbol anywhere (even as 'Unknown Device' in Device Manager). It only appears in there during installation as Bluetooth USB Controller-10 from TOSHIBA as if setup files dig it out from somewhere.
It stays with '!' (meaning not properly installed) even though the Driver Software Installation message indicates 'Ready to use'.
And the same 'Installing the Bluetooth driver. Please wait.' message stuck forever...

Perhaps the Function buttons (for pressing Fn+ ... ) are not enabled?..
Maybe I have to install some tools/utilities before trying to install this driver?

As you mentioned their importance, would you kindly go over the download page and suggest the right order of installing them?

Wow! Everything worked.
I would consider myself very fortunate if throughout my life I'm surrounded by such kind, caring, supportive and well-wishing people as Keany.
Thank you very much!
