    Hi all

    I have a FZ31Z and I recently installed Win7 Prof on my notebook. I new there would be some driver issues, so I downloaded all possible software and driverware from the sony support site for my notebook prior to installing Win7. However, my Bluetoot LED is on all the time - even when bluetooth is disabled.

    The notebook seems to be working fine - I obviously didn't get all the downloaded software to work, since some was restricted to Vista. However, my Device Manager shows no driver issues.

    Unfortunately, I don't have the LAN Mngr anymore (the green square at the right of the taskbar) and I assume this has something to do with the fact. Maybe somebody has a Win7 compatible version of the LAN Mngr?

    Any ideas how I can turn off my Bluetooth LED?

    Thanks in advance, ca$h
