    Welcome to windrivers Never_Dierl1234. More information is needed. Please explain what devices you are trying to install, on what kind of computer, what operating system, and what you mean by a dongle.

    Maybe I'm being dense, but you are not making sense to me. Does your computer have built-in bluetooth support or are you attaching a usb device to provide bluetooth support. If you are attaching a usb device to provide bluetooth access, you would need a driver for that device only. The bluetooth devices themselves do not require drivers - bluetooth support is built in to xp sp1 and later.

    Please answer:
    -Make/model of computer. Pentium 4 2.8 is not make or model - do you have dell, hp, etc. If custom, provide make/model of motherboard.
    -Is bluetooth support built-in to computer, provided via an add-in card, or provided via a usb device?
    -What specific bluetooth devices are you trying to connect, i.e., printer, mouse, keyboard, pda, phone?

    I'm taking a wild stab in the dark as I haven't read much about bluetooth, but perhaps he means having two connections on it or something like that?

    here is the story hopefully make sense to everybody :
    currently im working on a project that use a bluetooth that connect on a usb port (not built in bluetooth). i have 2 drivers for this device that contain different API and unfortunately my project needs to use both API. To make these APIs work i must installl this two driver on one bluetooth..... if i just choose one driver it means that i just can use one API and give up the other one.....

    So this still isn't particularly making sense to us 'fix it' dudes (least not me anyway), but I now get the drift, some feature is available with one driver you want & someother features available with another, but not both at once ?

    pls somebody teach me how to install 2 different drivers on one bluetooth device
    Can't do it at the same time ! each device has just has one driver at any one instance - thats it period, unless you are in the business of writing drivers to accomodate all these features in just one driver - we ain't ! we just fix stuff how it ought to work ..

    Go back to whoever provided these two different drivers & start with them

    That'd let him choose which feature set he wanted, but not both at once which was what he seemed to want ?
