    I have Win 7 x64 Pro and just installed the driver for the Dell 375 Bluetooth 3.0 for my laptop (sig). However, when I right-click the tray icon and Open Settings, it cannot open the settings. I cannot discover any devices either. How can I change the settings?

    Make sure your Bluetooth device is turned on . Try turning it off and on and see if your computer detects it.

    I've already done that. Plus, you can't even see the option when it's turned off.
    I have the correct driver from the M14x page
