    Hey guys,

    I am wondering if someone with a P6831* (* being any model of the FX series with a 8800GTS in it) can give me the part # of their bluetooth module. I just picked up a 7811-FX and noticed there is an actual slot for the bluetooth module, it is just missing. I am going to try and get one from one of the older models and see if it works.

    Any help is appreciated.

    -Jonathan

    go to the gateway website, and I think if you enter in your serial number they give you a list fo parts available. Ill get you the link.

    serial number is on the bottom of the laptop incase you didnt know.

    Thx nars, I did visit gateway's website but it had 3 different ones listed so I couldn't determine which I would need.

    I would assume they are all the same. Just different parts in some, like CPU, HDD, dvd drive. I would assume they would use the same bluetooth mod for each one.
