    History:
    A pavilion DV6600 series has been successfully flashed from its original F.5A BIOS to F.5A with removed whitelist with the aim to replace a Wireless a/b/g card with an N-card (Intel Centrino N-1030) combined with Bluetooth.

    New problem showing up:
    Although the modified BIOS accepts the new Wireless card, the Bluetooth part remains disabled.
    There is no sign in the Device Manager of any Bluetooth activity.

    Question
    How can the Bluetooth part of the Wireless Intel N 1030 be activated / enabled (all required drivers were installed through Intel's support page) ?
