Widcomm and Destop Manager do not work together. Delete the Widcomm drivers and just use the XP BT stack and all should work.

anything special need doing for VISTA as I cannot connect Desktop Manager via Bluetooth?

I had to d/l the newest drivers for my BT that was compatible with Vista. After that need to go into control panel and setup BT devices Then on desktop manager go to connections select enable bluetooth support. Also click on configure bluetooth and select add then it will search for your device. Need to be sure it is enabled on your BB so it can find it
