    I installed a Intel 6230 wireless card in my Sager 8130 over the weekend. This replaces the 6300 that came with it as I now have a need for bluetooth. I downloaded the drivers directly from Intel's website for the wifi and bluetooth functionality. The only issue I have is that the when I shutdown or restart the laptop with the bluetooth on the bluetooth is never on after I start the computer back on. I have to manually start the bluetooth with the hotkey on the keyboard. Is there a way to make the card start bluetooth on startup?

    Hey you have the right drivers, don't mind that part :)

    Go into your BIOS (Hit F2 during boot)

    Then go to Advanced, and Advanced Chipset I believe, there is a setting for bluetooth power management, change it to enabled, and it will keep its power setting over the reboot.
