Bluetooth Not Activating???

Hello Friends,

I own a Dell XPS M1530 laptop and recently my windows vista was not working properly so i decided to reinstall the windows again. I installed each and every driver but when i was installing the Bluetooth driver, it shows me "Activate Bluetooth by Fn+F2 or Radio On/Off Button".  My Radio button is already on the ON position and when I press Fn+F2 nothing happens. I need to install this driver, so if anyone knows the solution, please reply as soon as possible. Thanks in advance

 

Regards,

Samarjeetsaigal,

Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum.

Try the steps below to see if they will resolve your issue.

Download and Save the dell bluetooth driver for your system.

 Install the driver:
- 1. Execute the file
- 2. Open the folder that you save the file at
- 3. Execute the file "Setup.exe".
- 4. When the driver ask you to active your Bluetooth antena, click in "Cancel.
- 5. Open the folder again
- 6. Execute the file "Inst.exe".
- 7. Click in "Next" button to begin the installation.

Note: When the software ask you to activate the Bluetooth DO NOT CANCEL.

fawaaz,

Did you recently install/reinstall the operating system? If yes, did you install the notebook system utility and the chipset drivers first? How to Download and Install Drivers in the Correct Order

It walks you through the process. I had that problem and the instructions is how I got mine to work.
