Solved- No bluetooth in T410s?

I haven't been able to find the settings for pairing a bluetooth device anywhere on this machine. Downloaded and ran the ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate Software for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - ThinkPad at http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/product ... s/DS029104

The installer says there wasn't any bluetooth device found. The other bluetooth driver (II) installer is apparently incompatible with the T410s on Windows 7.

Looking in the BIOS there isn't any sign of a bluetooth radio.

Were there models of the T410s without any bluetooth radio included?

To allow us to respond accordingly, please always post your 7-character TYPE from the label on the laptop bottom.
No need to publish your S/N (Serial Number).

OR, put that TYPE in the MTM link above to get ex-factory specs!

It's 2912-3RU, which should apparently have bluetooth.

Fn + F5. Do you see your bluetooth radio in access connections radios? If not here is a link to the bluetooth driver for your T410s.

@Hans Gruber: go to sleep with your Fn + F4!
OP already got the driver...

Fn/F5 will let you check if BT is active in Access Connections.
If you have no working wifi either, check the wifi On/Off switch.
Also, a previous owner(?) might have removed the BT module, or it may be defective.
Check under the front/right palmrest.
