Have a T61P which shows up on Lenovo's auto detect with bluetooth and has bluetooth icon on the LED panel on the display. When I got it someone had loaded Windows 7 Ultimate which seems to operate fine. Pressing Fn and F5 shows the WIFI connection but not the bluetooth. Tried loading bluetooth driver from Lenovo site but it fails saying that option is not there. What gives?
How do I get the bluetooth to function?

Try this...

Load your bios and go to "security" and "I/O devices" and scroll down and look for bluetooth. It's probably been disabled.

That was it. Was disabled in BIOS. Thanks for your help.

Glad to help, and if you need any parts for your T61p let me know, I have boxes full of them.
