Hello inmyhatch,

 

I see you can't get your blue tooth to work.  Have you tried to "right" click on the blue tooth icon in the system tray?  When you click on it, a menu will appear, and you need to click on the bluetooth setup wizard. From there it'll ask you a series of questions to setup your moduel.  Now is this module a bluetooth mouse?  If it is, you'll want to select the Human Interface Device from the second menu screen that comes up after selecting an option from the first pop-up window.  From there, you'll be asked to search for device.  On the module, you should have a button of some sort that you can press, and hold down until a light starts to blink on and off letting you know that its waiting to be found by your bluetooth enabled computer.  Once your module is blinking, click on the search button and it should come up on the window.  Click on the device in the window, and click next/connect.  Once your connection has been established, it'll let you know that your device is ready to be used. 

If this doesn't help, I'd suggest using your owners manual on setting up your module.  Although I do remember reading this from the owners manual of my M1730.  I hope you get your module working.  Good luck, and let us know how you fixed it!
