The Microsoft stack allows you to install an external Bluetooth adapter automatically. If your Bluetooth adapter supports the Microsoft stack but it does not install automatically, then you do not have the Microsoft stack on your computer. Check the documentation that came with the Bluetooth adapter to see if it supports the Microsoft stack. • Widcomm/Broadcom stack: If you have an HP computer with Bluetooth built in, or if you have installed an HP Bluetooth adapter, then your computer has the Widcomm/Broadcom stack. If you have an HP computer and plug in an HP Bluetooth adapter, it will install automatically using the Widcomm/Broadcom stack.
