A Bluetooth device no longer works on a Windows Vista-based computer after you resume the computer from standby (S3) or from hibernation (S4)

Consider the following scenario:

  • You install a Bluetooth device on a Windows Vista-based computer, and then you turn the device on.
  • You put the computer into standby (the S3 power state) or into hibernation (the S4 power state).
  • You resume the computer from standby or from hibernation.

In this scenario, the Bluetooth device no longer works . Additionally, a yellow exclamation mark (!) appears next to the device in Device Manager. When you view the device properties, the device status is reported as code 43.

There is a download that resolves this issue. See Hotfixes for details.
