Limitations Using the Xircom® RealPort2 Bluetooth Adapter in Windows* 95 OSR2

The following is a list of known limitations when the Xircom® RealPort2 Bluetooth Adapter is used in Windows* 95 OSR2:

1. Of all the Windows* 95 revisions, only Windows* 95 OSR2 is supported. Windows* 95 Retail version and other earlier versions (earlier than OSR2) are not supported.

2. Microsoft* Internet Explorer* 5.0 or above is required.

3. You must reboot or log off Windows in order to install the Bluetooth and Intellisync* software. The machine will not restart on its own.

4. If you hot-swap the card, the radio will not automatically turn back on. As a workaround:

  • Right click the Xircom icon in the Systray
  • Select Exit
  • Choose:
    • Start
    • Programs
    • Xircom Utilities
    • Start Bluetooth Environment
  • Your radio should turn on at this point.

5. Some machines experience problems opening BlueView* by double-clicking the icon in the Systray. If Windows 95 OSR2 is used, the recommended way to open this application is to right-click the icon and selecting Open Blueview or by using the start menu to access the program file.

This applies to:
Xircom® CreditCard Bluetooth* Adapter (CBT)
Xircom® RealPort2™ Bluetooth* Adapter (R2BT)
