Sorry about that, I must have hit something to post this before I was done.
ANYWAY... the error I get says: " Unable to start blue tooth stack service.
How do I fix this and what do you think caused it. Other than that, all is well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Jackboy,
I found the solution for the bluetooth troubles on dell laptops. Do the following :
1. Use the registry editor (Regedit) to locate and expand the following registry key:
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMPONENTS\DerivedData\Components\'
2. From the long list on the left, delete the following key:
'x86_microsoft.vc80.mfc_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.762_none_0c178a139ee2a7ed'.
3. Restart the computer and reinstall bluetooth drivers.
good luck.
Wim
