Please log in for more thread options Paul, you saved my day. I don't know how to thank you. First I thought
that I didn't have any Bluetooth USB stick anywhere but I remembered that I
had, at the bottom of a drawer, an old Bluetooth Headset that came with a
stick. I plugged the stick in and it did the trick. It reinstalled my
Bluetooth radio, I recreated all the Bluetooth relationships and now PPC and
laptop communicate again.
I hope that you can help me with my WiFi problem now. I thought that WiFi
stopped working because it came in conflict with this Bluetooth USB device
malfunctioning (UGX?) but now that I reinstalled everything I still don't
have WiFi. I tried to repair but no way.
