reformatting E1505 to XP and now I have problems.

1. Bluetooth? I've downloaded the driver pack and unzipped it or something, which unpacked even more driver files. I've ran all the ones with the word "Bluetooth" on it.

Should I have had run ALL of them?

Back when I was in Vista there was a separate program that allowed me to manage Bluetooth options, now nothing's here. How do I work things out?

 

2. I also have this "Base System Device" hardware found but for some reason I can't locate the driver on my laptop or on the Dell website. What is this? And how relevant is it to my laptop?

 

3. For some reason, whenever I plug in anything to my usb slots it takes forever (10+ minutes) for them to be "Safe to Eject." Why is that?
