Bluetooth USB Dongle giving me a headache...

[skip2mylou]

hey everyone, not too long ago i purchased a USB Bluetooth dongle for my PC, and it has so far worked. but i try to install it on my laptop and i get problems. first off i put the dongle in the usb drive and a new hardware is detected, yay. i put in the installation CD that came with it and it does its thing and i think all has gone well. i restart my laptop, and there is no Bluetoooth icon on my desktop, no little symbol in my taskbar. nothing. i go to add/remove proggies and i see the software is there, but since its not working, i uninstall it. it finishes, i restart. so now im thinkin "ok lemme go for a second attempt" so i put in the installation CD and it gives me a message: are u sure u want to remove BlueSoleil (the bluetooth sotfware) from this computer? im thinkin "didnt i already do that" but whatever i hit yes and it does its thing and i restart. i try the CD again and i get the same message, so now im thinkin maybe it wasnt fully uninstalled, so i go back to add/remove and i see that the proggie is still listed. so i click change/remove, and nothing happens. i do it a coupla more times... nothing. i restart and try... nothing. now im kind of at a roadblock. i want to get bluetooth on my PC, but i cant install it. any advice would be greatly apppreciated. thanks.

after you uninstalled it did you go and make sure the folder was deleted in program files?

when you unistalle it restart you computer  and then turn it on and then install it again and if not what os aare u running in your laptop
