Hello,

I just wanted to know how I can completely disable Bluetooth in Windows bootcamp, and not have it start up when I turn on the computer. I only use windows on my Mac mini, and dont need the bluetooth for the keyboard or anything else. Thanks

So, you are using both a wired keyboard and mouse?

You would turn it on and off exactly the same way you would on any other computer running Windows which would typically be done in Device Manager or via the Services panel.

Whether it is the exact same steps in Win 8 - haven't a clue since I've not touched that version of Windows and since you haven't told us which version of Windows you are using, I don't really want to give you misinformation.

You can do a web search to find the specifics for your version of Windows for example: "Windows 7 turn off bluetooth" or "Windows 7 disable bluetooth".

Hi...I am running Windows 7, and using a Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse which have their own receiver.

If I disable bluetooth through Device manager, can i just remove the program from starting through msconfig.

Not much point in doing anything else that I can see once it's been disabled.
