    Hi guys,
    I just bought Sony Vaio SR, but I couldn't find how to activate Bluetooth. I'm pretty sure that the notebook has bluetooth.
    Can someone please help me to find it.
    Thank you very much

    Sincerely.

    Do you know how many SR models there are?
    What's your model number.

    Thanks - Amazon seems to indicate Bluetooth on the VGN-SR430J/B...

    You can try to verify is there via thedevie manager.

    Have yo go the Vaio Smart Network utility?
    On my SZ that controls all the "wireless stuff" and LAN too.

    Bluetooth possibly shows up as a little icon in the system tray.
    Else possible via Control Center...

    What is it you want to do?

    Thank you very much for your help.
    At the end I found it in the control central. The program is called Smart Wii Connection Utility. Like you said it controls wireless, lan and bluetooth. Thanks again

    Looks like they changed the name.

    You're welcome :)
