    I have done a clean installation of Windows 7 on my Vaio Z and after struggling for a few days to get WWAN working, it now is thanks to people on NBR. What I believe is my final problem is bluetooth.

    Before I did the clean install, I got my bluetooth headset working after installing an update from the Broadcom website ( http://www.broadcom.com/support/bluetooth/update.php). After the clean install, this update program gives an error message that it cannot update the software on my computer.

    Has anyone got bluetooth working with a clean install? Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Brian
