It was a hardware specific problem. This works for my Logitech receiver and may also work for other brands...

"There are two modes the dongle works in, Embedded and HCI. By default the embedded is active, which emulates a USB device so it seems to your PC that your using a normal USB mouse/keyoard.
If you hold the little red Button on the USB BT mini-receiver it will enable the other mode. Hold the red button on the BT dongle and plug it into the computer, and after 3-5 seconds of holding the button, the Bluetooth icon will appear in the system tray.
You can then use the adapter as a BT receiver. The adapter continues to work in BT mode after reboots, but I think the occasional BT failure (usually after an update) is caused by the mode changing."
