I got an NC10 just before christmas & in my wisdom I turned off the bluetooth to save battery life, i'm now wanting to turn it back on & use it but stupidly can't remember how I turned it off & can't seem to get it restarted frown

When I open the bluetooth places it doesn't give an option to turn it on just find local devices which it obivously can't as its not turned on.I think if I can get it to show in the system tray then I can sort it but I can't seem to get it to do that either frown

So Help. has anyone had & resolved this problem or got any suggestions..?

Check that it isn't disabled in Device Manager, and that the Bluetooth service is running in Services

It's hidden under Administrative Tools or Accessories > Communications somewhere like that as I had the same problem with mine biggrin

It lists as just Bluetooth on the XP start menu.
