    Hi guys , im having a little problem on my m11x. Whenever i boot into my desktop , a message pops up for no reason that says

    "Bluetooth Device Not Discoverable - Your bluetooth radio is turned on but is not discoverable. Only those devices that are paired with your computer can see it. Click here to change this setting."

    I have a bluetooth mouse connected to my m11x but i can still use the mouse.

    Im a bit irritated because I will have to wait for this message to pop up for 1 minute before i can do anything on my m11x.

    I get the same problem with my VAIO Z12, that message pops up and I can't use the mouse or keyboard for a minute or two, then they work again but that message will come up and the mouse and keyboard won't work intermittently

    Having exact same "problem" with my Razer Orochi. Always thought if I uninstall/reinstall drivers and re-pair the mouse it would probably fix the problem but I never got around to it since it doesn't bother me to much. I'm guessing you've tried that though..
