The bluetooth device is found as soon the radio is turned on, you will need this:

Press Fn+F5, turn blutooh on, and the installation should complete.
Thanks marcos, that did it!

Okay,

I also don't have Bluetooth on my T41,

Can I just buy a BlueTooth PCI card adapter? I already ordered a Class 2 (100 meters) BT card from ZOOM (www.zoom.com).

I noticed no one mentioned this as an option. So now I'm wondering if Bluetooth PCI cards will work on IBMs T40 series?

When you say "PCI card" I think you mean to say PCMCIA card...the little credit card size things that go in the side. If that's what you mean then I'm sure it's going to work. If you don't hear us talking about that as an option it's because we're all a bunch of techno-weenies who think it's important to have the bluetooth all integrated into the laptop.

Your method might be cheaper and is way faster....just not as integrated
