    Hello guys,

    I bought a brand new bluetooth mouse & keyboard to fit my sexy XPS 1640.
    I bought the microsoft 8000 wireless entertainment system. The only problem so far is with the mouse, it work great after a boot up, but after 15 min, the laptop is set to go into sleep mode, and when it wake up the mouse still works but the scrool wheel doesn't work anymore. I downloaded the latest drivers from Microsoft and still the same problem. It's a pain having to reboot everytime to get the wheel working, any idea how to fix it ? I have no clue :confused:

    Thanks

    I had the same problem. Find out what your bluetooth card is and try a newer version of the drivers, which might not necessarily be on the support page for your particular machine (have to search around). I am using R205174 and it works perfectly.
