I was recently asked to look at a Sony Vaio VPCSB which was detecting new hardware on every Windows boot. The machine was otherwise working well. Upon inspection I discovered that there were several unknown devices which seemed to be related to Bluetooth. I reinstalled the latest drivers from the Sony website but this failed to clear the unknown devices. The search was on…अज्ञात उपकरणों हार्डवेयर आईडी BTHENUM पड़ा{6e0c8f4c-d928-4852-b6b2-f0f0e0d126fa}. Googling quickly made clear that I was not the only person having this problem. The actual hardware inside the Sony is listed as a FoxConn T77H114-BCM2070. This is based on the Broadcom (बीसीएम) 2070 chip. I downloaded some updated Bluetooth drivers directly from Broadcom, लेकिन मैं करता हूं रूप expec टेड वे स्थापित करने के लिए मना कर दिया, stating that no valid hardware was found. This is because Broadcom basically wont provide drivers direct to end users, यदि हां, तो आपके OEM hasn’t updated their customised drivers (सोनी नहीं है के रूप में) तो आप कई विकल्प नहीं मिला है.
Fortunately I found a forum thread suggesting that there were some newer Broadcom drivers लाभ सुलभ हिमाचल प्रदेश से which hadn’t been locked to HP only devices. I downloaded these newer drivers which installed perfectly first time. As I’d hoped they included drivers which worked for the unknown devices. After a quick reboot the laptop booted as expected and no longer started trying to locate drivers. Success! धन्यवाद हिमाचल प्रदेश.
