I'm sorry, I misread your original post. I read that the error message WAS
occurring at start up. My bad!
Does the message reoccur at start up? If so, there probably is an entry in
one of those two keys, or in the Startup folder.

Hi SC Tom

No it does not occur at start up. Only when trying to install the software.
The installer is finding a reboot flag somewhere that is stopping the
installation from carrying on. I would like to add that there are about 6
references to the dongle in the registry. I am tempted to remove all
references to the dongle and see if this helps but due to the length of time
this would take I would like to try other options first. I cannot find any
reference to the software in the registry.

Contact Huawei or your wireless internet provider's support.

Did Windows prompt you for a driver disc when you plugged it in? According
to the instructions with my IOGear USB 2.1 Micro Adapter, the Bluetooth
stack is included with XP SP2 or later. I plugged mine in on my Win7
notebook and it was found and set up, then it prompted me for updated
drivers, if I had any.
As a test, I just plugged it into my WP SP3 desktop, and it was recognized
and popped up the configuration page. I was never asked for a driver disc
with XP.
You might consider doing a System Restore to before the first time you tried
installing it, then plugging it in and see if it's found on its own.

I would but their support can be rather lacking. In any case I believe this
to be a computer issue. I want to stop the installer from 'seeing' the
reboot, (which isn't needed,) and carry on with the installation. I do not
believe that either will be able to help on this matter and certainly not '3'
(based on previous dealings with them.)
