So I have no idea whether I have bluetooth compatible laptop.
Here's the story. I have the so called drivers on my recovery disk. I installed them and the software comes up, ie "my bluetooth places" and the icon in the system tray but when i go to control panel, there is no "bluetooth devices appelet" also when i type "bthprops.cpl" in the "run" nothin happens.

So I read up a little and find service pack 2 doesnt like outside drivers. I find this thread
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=3163

and i get to the part in step 2 asking me to remove device and plug back in. Well the only device i have is my bluetooth razr phone from telus. I have a bluetooth button on the laptop, but no matter when i click the button, "NO DEVICE" comes on my screen

I tried searching for my phone with the acer drivers and software, and still nothing. even when those are installed, my BT button comes back "no device"

service pak 2 did nothing for my BT neither.
I alsp just reloaded my windows xp, full reload using the disks. All updates have been installed!

so i turn to you for help
thanks
