    my pc says that the bluetooth is not connected.. how can this be?? an inbuilt bluetooth device should be detect by the pc itself and the funniest part is that the device manager doesnt show any conflict...

    help required..

    In Control Panel do you have BlueTooth Configuration and or BlueTooth Devices ? I have a Bluetooth mouse and I remember when I first installed it I had to manuall add it (no automatic).

    I have not connnected anything other than a mouse with bluetooth - but I would assume it is the same - you have to instigate connections nothing - 'automatic' would happen after the intial join (ie: next time connect to same device ?)

    Might want to check hardware or assecories forms as well.

    Bluetooth will need the drivers installed. Did you install any?
