You probably ended up setting it up as a headset on the PDA, and Headphones on the laptop. A disadvantage of this device is that it can only be paired with 2 devices at a time: A Phone that uses the mic AND the speakers, and an MP3 player or computer that uses Stereo Audio. To use the mic on the laptop, make sure you are using the Headset profile, and not the High Quality Audio profile. In other words, make sure it's a "Hands free audio", and not a "Stereo Audio". Repair the device to change its services.

I want to install the sony vaio bluetooth driver

Hi.

According to the information available online, the VGN-FS920 Notebook is not shipped with a built-in Bluetooth Device.

Hence, you may use an External Bluetooth Device.

You may also go through the Marketing Specifications for VGN-FS920 Notebook.

You may download the Marketing Specifications from the below link:

Hope this helps.

Please feel free to contact for further assistance.

Thank you.

If you have to ask "how", you should avoid a heap of trouble by taking the computer to a qualified technician, to get the job correctly, using the correct tools.
