    I have just finished installing Windows 7 from Dell and am receiving the above message. "Cannot Start BT Stack Service"

    Has anyone else experienced this problem with Win 7?

    Thoughts?

    do you have a bluetooth adapter in your machine? what does the event viewer and device manager tell you?

    I hate this error with a passion. I used to get it all the time on my Studio 15 in Vista and 7. The only thing you can really do is reinstall the BT driver completely.

    did you install the dell bluetooth software or do you have the default msft stack running? If both, decide on which one you want, you may be setting up a conflict between drivers wanting to serve the same hardware.
