    I'm trying to enable a bluetooth dongle but just can't seem to get it to work.

    I've uninstalled the thinkpad bluetooth drivers and trying again:

    So I download and install:

    Bluetooth Enhanced Data Rate software?

    &

    bluesoleil software for the mini bluesoleil dongle

    But it does not recognize the dongle, as if it's disabled or not even plugged in.

    What am I missing? Is there anything I have to enable elsewhere on the laptop?
