[Shop-talk] Fw: shop computer question

[john niolon]

well the final (so far) solution is hard wired cable from headphone jack to the 
audio input on the receiver... bought a blue tooth card for the laptop
but could never find a driver that would work (could be operator error).   for 
now it will have to do.

Subject: shop computer question



Well, 
I'm back with another computer question and it really is in my shop
I have a Dell Latitude laptop running windows XP with only usb 2.0 ports , basically an internet search device only
 
I use an old cell phone and Spotify for music download bluetoothed to an Esinkin Bluetooth receiver connected to my old
Pioneer stereo system... But wireless internet inside the shop is spotty and Spotify doesn't 
always work well
 
Sooo 
I'm thinking … download Spotify to my laptop that has good internet connectivity (thanks Peter Murrey) and Bluetooth to
the Esinkin unit...   but the old Dell doesn't 
have Bluetooth.
 
I'm looking for an adapter to install so I can attach my laptop wirelessly to an Esinkin Bluetooth Audio Receiver connected to my stereo in the shop
 
Most I find aren't 
compatibly with XP or must have usb 3.0 … and none of the vendors I ask will 
reply...
 
anyone have a suggestion >>??
 
thanks
john
