Not sure, but so far I have been able to use it with my Android tablet, my galaxy s3 phone, aand my Samsung Note 1 tablet. As long as the Bluetooth adapter works, should be ok.

Yes, even if you computer does not have Bluetooth Support you can make it work. You will need to purchase a Bluetooth Dongle, this is plugged into the headset out receptacle, this can then be paired with the receiving Blue Tooth headset.

The USB drivers appear to work in windows 7 fine. Audio is sent to the USB port as digital and the headset converts it to analog. I do not have windows 8, but would assume the USB drivers would not have been removed in the newer release.

It's unlikely to work with bluetooth (when paired to my phone, it only picks up calls, it doesn't stream music or game audio) Through the cable should work fine, assuming other USB headsets work. You obviously wouldn't have the drivers, but all PC's I've tested it on have worked plug-and-play.

It works great with my Windows 7 laptop (a Samsung) with just a little bit of setup - my Philips BT drives a bi-amplified stereo system with hundreds of watts.You realize that the Philips BT cannot drive regular speakers by itself - there has to be an amplifier of some sort to take the BT output and drive the speakers.

If your computer has a bluetooth adapter (internal or external) you can use it. I bought a cheap dongle so my bluetooth sound experience has been poor with my laptop. It works brilliantly with my android lg optimus, though. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I'm having the same problem. I contacted the company and they said the headset isn't designed for Windows, and that you may not be able to get it to work even with the correct drivers. Annoying!!

I've never tried it with Windows; I use macs exclusively. But, you ask an important question; I previously purchased a Logitech USB headphone/mic combination, thinking it should work with my Mac - but that was not the case. Hardware-wise, sure it fits in the USB port, but I wasn't counting on it needing a driver written for Mac, which there was not.

Your computer needs to have Bluetooth and if you have added a USB dangle for it, then it needs to load/get the driver and from my experience on a few Windows 7 devices without and with Bluetooth, Windows 7 is a disgrace to an OS when it comes to Bluetooth connections, it is slow, faulty, and painful. The second, if you ever decide to do it, you switch to Windows 8, everything becomes normal!

It works great with Windows 7, I use that same setup with two computers and the Bluetooth receiver, no issues.

It uses non-proprietary bluetooth (regular bluetooth often builtin to laptops.) I use two of them on two Win 7 laptops and have a brand new one still in the packaging for a backup since I did have one go bad within the warranty period but I couldn't wait for it so I bought one. I didn't think they were still available. :-)

For some reason the analog cables don't work for me with this headset. Probably an issue with my sound card I don't know honestly. But you can have it connected to pc and your phone via bluetooth and nfc. There's a trick to it. Connect it via nfc to ur phone then bluetooth via ur pc. Also USB pc and phone bluetooth work as well

I downloaded the drivers that Daniel Graham posted below (http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS014997). After installing the driver and modifying some of my sound settings, this worked perfectly on my Thinkpad W530. I'm able to listen to audio and make/take VOIP calls on my laptop.

Hhhmmm im not sure I've only used it on windows 7. I'm sorry i wasn't much help but if windows 8 has compatibility with windows 7 software then it should work cause you need to download the soundblaster software for the headset to work at optimal efficiency. I wish I could have helped you more sorry. >.<

"Discoverable mode"? Its not bluetooth. Plug it in. Win7 will download drivers automatically from the internet. Go to the Sounds control panel of Windows. Set it as the default device, or default communication device as needed.

I believe it will work. I use the BTD 500 paired with my bluetooth hearing devices and I am running Windows 7. The only issue I have noticed is, I need to pair the USB and my hearing devices on a daily basis. No big deal really. Just pull it out of the USB port, plug it back in and pair with your Bluetooth device.
