bluetooth logitechmx5000 s

Hey guys, I have a bluetooth MX5000 logitech combo that came with a USB 2.0 Bluetooth 2.0 EDR dongle. I have tried installing SetPoint x64(logitech software for the keyboard and mouse) but It always fails when trying to re-connect my bluetooth devices. So, I gave up on Logitech's solution for bluetooth and tried to just use Windows Vista drivers. Alright so I connected my dongle and then Windows installs it as a Generic USB Hub and a USB Human Interface Device..and it says its properly installed. However, when I go to the device manager or to the control panel there is no bluetooth option or icon anywhere. In the device manager it just blends in as a normal usb device..no special bluetooth icon or anything. Even though nothing shows up, my keyboard and mouse do work perfectly...but I really want to pair my bluetooth headset and PDA to vista to test it out. Any help please!!!
Thanks alot

Your help will come from Logitech, in the form of updated drivers.

Contact Logitech and press them for the updates. The more people who complain, the quicker they may respond.
