    Hiya guys,
    i just bought an Aspire 1694WLMi

    first thing i did was format and install windows XP Pro,
    downloaded all the latest drivers and started installing.
    I got everything off the acer website installed but ive still got a couple of problems

    so far two objects havent been installed:
    Acer Module and broadcom bluetooth 2.0+EDR USB dongle

    for all i know they are the same device (they seem to appear seperately) however no matter what i try using the 'bluetooth' software downloaded from asus, it says it cannot find the correct drivers.

    the other little problem i have is the bluetooth and wifi button at the front of the system. they both work and turn either on or off but whenever i press them i get a big green"NO DEVICE" appear on the screen.
    i wouldve thought some of the downloaded acer software wouldve fix that but it hasnt...
