Please log in for more thread options >> Several other laptops have a switch (physcally on the laptop, Fn key
combo or in the BIOS) which turns off WiFi radio and Bluetooth radio.
The reason the Bluetooth radio wa greyed out is that Windows XP is not
finding the radio "connected" to your laptop. <<
Mine (Sony Vaio T VGN-T270P) has none but I disabled WiFi in the control
panel and re-enabled it and now the networks all appear on the window but
still my computer refuses to connect to mine.
Right now there is no radio connected to my laptop and Bluetooth radio is
not greyed.
I still have this nagging message that a USB Bluetooth device is
malfunctioning.
