2 bluetooth dongles in one PC (Win XP SP2)

Hello

I'm trying to plug in two Bluetooth dongles into one PC (Win XP SP2).

With the first one I don't have any problems but the second one is not

detected properly.

Should I rewrite the win XP driver? Or do you have another solution

to do that? Maybe is should use Linux instead?

Thanks for help.

Do they both support the same bluetooth stack e.g the standard WinXP
bluetooth stack? Or does one require a different driver?

AFAIK WinXP should support multiple local dongles (radios).

I am also interested about this. especially about how to use two
dongles from the same company, eg, two CSR dongles, one for PTS and
one for IVT. is there a way?
