    I have a Dell Traveling bluetooth mouse that i have installed on my new M1530 twice now and some times when i boot my computer it is no longer installed?? Any ideas why or what keeps causing this? I really dont want to have to carry around the disk with and re-enstall it when ever it drops.

    Does your touchpad works when the BT mouse doesn't?

    Interference maybe, with other devices like cordless phones, microwaves, wifi router, etc.... ?? Are any of these things near you when you are using your mouse?
