+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 12, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted December 12, 2008 Is there anyway I can use this headset on my PC? I mean I can pair it up to my phone absolute fine. Seeing as my PC has no Bluetooth I assume I just need to buy an adapter of some sorts? Anyone know what it would be? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Kyle Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I have a Bluetooth enabled PC, and a friend has the Sony headset. I'll check this evening for you. Oh, hello forum! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lingwo Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Any bluetooth adapter should be fine. For example http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132475 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 12, 2008 Author Subscriber² Share Posted December 12, 2008 Any bluetooth adapter should be fine. For example http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132475 Ah right that would be all I need? Awesome, shouldn't be expensive then. Didn't know if I'd need to go buy a ?20-25 card or something. I'll still wait and see if anyone can confirm it works, in case Sony block it - But I'd guess not as it works fine with my mobile phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted December 12, 2008 Veteran Share Posted December 12, 2008 Yeah all you need is a BT adapter. I used to use my BT headset just with my Logitech adaptor which came with my K/M set. Drivers could be a problem though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lingwo Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 That's all you need. If it works fine on your mobile then it'll work fine on your PC. It may say "official" on the box but at the end of the day it is just your bog standard bluetooth headset. Driver wise, you shouldn't need one, windows should install it all fine.

Should being the keyword. We all know in the computing world things aren't always that smooth :p For instance, both my laptop and pc have synced to my BT headset fine in the past. On my last format however when I tried to sync the hardware together, nada. Couldn't do it because Windows Update couldn't find the drivers needed, even though it knew it was a BT headset. (no software came with the headset either and there's nothing on the manufac website. I suspect the official headset will be much the same).

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 18, 2008 Author Subscriber² Share Posted December 18, 2008 Okay, so I got my adapter in and the PC finds the headset fine (Y) Issue I have just now though is the PC is outputting my sound through the headset as well which is no use :laugh: It's a one-ear bluetooth headset, I want my sound coming out my speakers and just to use the headset for voice chat. Any help on configuring it like that? I admit I haven't tinkered around with it a lot myself yet, but I'll just ask anyway to see if I get a quick answer! Thanks (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I always use my headset for the mic function and have sound played through my speakers In windows xp Control Panel > Sound > Audio tab You can change the sound playback to your sound card, sound recording to bluetooth device Also , in the Voice tab make sure playback is with sound card and recording is bluetooth.
