Bluetooth headset non-connectivity issue

[greeneden]

I understand many have had this problem, but here goes. I have a Dell Inspiron with Vista and on-board bluetooth capability. I would like to use a standard monaural bluetooth headset to make calls using MagicJack. Right now, I use a corded set which plugs in to the laptop. Do I have to get a dongle and pair it with my headset? Is there a driver program that takes the place of the dongle, or do I in fact need both in order to make this work?

The 2 devices need to be compatible with one another. Read the articles at http://www.cnet.com.au/choose-the-right-bluetooth-headset-339272830.htm
You may need to get a dongle to match.
I know the new Acer ones pick up the Nokia phone without a hassle, I don't know about headsets. They may be on a different frequancy.
