bluetooth problem 600m
I had to reformat the hard drive and reinstall Win XP in my 600m. I've reinstalled all the drivers, etc. including Bluetooth. In hardware device manager, everything looks OK (no ! in yellow) Under network adapters, are 2 Bluetooth device entries (personal area network and RFCOMM protocol TDI) and both are "working properly"
When I go to control panel and click Bluetooth configuration or when clicking the Bluetooth icon in sys tray to enable Bluetooth radio, I get the following error "Bluetooth device not found. Please verify that your Bluetooth device is properly connected and turned on."
Anyone have any suggestions as to what I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

- Mary G - I don't know about all other drivers (don't recall the exact order of installation) but before the Bluetooth drivers. I tried uninstalling the Bluetooth drivers, rebooted and let Win find the new hardware, no luck.
bacillus - when I try to turn on the Bluetooth is when I get the error message that the davice can not be found.
Thanks for the sugestions so far. some info about the 600m and bluetooth:

- Thanks very much. I will give it a try.
Long story, but I did have the laptop apart to get at the fan to clean it. So, maybe BT not working is a result of my having to open things up. BT had been working prior to my fan problem and having to reinstall XP because of an IRQL error/blue screen of death issue.
Thanks again.
