    hey all,

    been lurking the forums for a while. You all helped me decide on Lenovo and I broke my cherry with a T410s. Love it so far. Thanks :D

    ...One small issue I hope to get resolved, Bluetooth! I ordered the intergrated PAN-2 (or whatever it is) and for the life of me I can not work it out. There is nothing in device manager. I do a search and I have 1 program for bluetooth installed but nothing happens when I click it. There appears to be drivers installed. I dont see the little logo or a function key to activate the thing either.

    So I guess Im looking for other ideas for some help. How would I go about physically checking that they have even configured my system correctly?

    thanks

    Hit Fn+F5 to bring up your radio control panel. Is Bluetooth turned on?

    Just to get another obvious one out of the way: the wireless switch (right side of the T410s) must be on.
