Hi Folks,

I am currently having an Lenovo/IBM Thinkpad T60 of 2007 year make. I have installed Windows 7 with SP, unfortunately I am unable to use the Bluetooth functionality ( which was functional prior to the new installation ).

Please Note :-
1. I have Switched On the the Wireless Switch located on the front side of the Laptop.
2. When I press Fn+F5, I could only able to see Wireless Turn On/Off option,but not Bluetooth one's.
3. Bluetooth option is enabled in the Boot.

I would be much glad if anyone of you could assist me out, PLEASE.

Sincerely,

Santosh

Have you installed Access Connections and Hotkeys? These should allow you to enable BT by pressing Fn+F5.

did you download and reinstall Bluetooth w/ enhanced data rate software / Win7 version?-

I would not expect that Bluetooth would enable without this.

You may also want to check the status of your system devices and see what else you need drivers for. I know when I put Win 7 on my R52 I still needed to address some system device issues manually.
