I was having the same problem with my Bluetooth. I would also get unknown USB device errors. The USB problem seemed to occur most often when I was typing or when any pressure is applied to the front right side just below the keyboard My laptop did the unknown USB thing 99% of the time. I noticed that it did it more often when I was typing and applying pressure to the front right hand side. So I pressed on that side with my finger and it came up Bluetooth adapter found”, and it also showed up in the device manager. When I let off the pressure the Bluetooth adapter disappeared in the device manager and it came up unknown USB device. I reseated the Bluetooth adapter and now it works great. I got my Bluetooth back and got rid of those darn unknown USB device popupsThis is a very common problem with D600 and its bluetooth. It happened to mine in less than one month after I received my D600, and less than a week for my friend's D600. In both cases, they have to replace the system board. You should call Dell Tech Support, and get it fixed asap.

Well, it was fixed. As soon as I took my laptop home the bluetooth card became loose again. So I am back to square one. The card is just barely on there I dont know how they sold them like this. If the laptop gets turned upside down the adapter will just fall off.

Dell said they are going to send someone out to replace the Mobo and bluetooth card. The problem is that they are backordered on the replacement bluetooth card. They are supposed to call me when they come in.
