    I upgraded from vista to xp and need help

    The bluetooth no longer works because xp cannot detect it. anyone else get it to work?

    I also installed a new intel 4965 pci-e mini card to replace my dell1390 card. how do i enable N ? can someone help me out by taking a picture of where the wires go on the intel 4965 card? I ordered off ebay and it is number coded while the inspiron is color coded.

    im using 32 bit. i tried the ones from dell but it keeps on saying activate BT using fn+F2 or radio on/off switch and underneath that it there is a button to cancel installation. it does that until i click cancel.Do you know anything about the wificard? could you take a picture if you have the same card? Thanks

    Have the same problem with BT(bluetooth).
    After upgrading from vista to xp notebook does not detect BT 355.
    During driver installing, it asks to activate BT using fn+F2. I tried but it doesn't detect any BT. In BIOS it is marked as active device.
    Help! Help! Help!
