Blue tooth device

My control panel does not show an icon for BLUE TOOTH DEVICES,
and because of that I can not set my Blue tooth.What can I do? I already
installed the drivers for the Blue Tooth adaptor and in Device Manager all is
OK.
Thanks
Tony

Your bluetooth adapter should come with additional software other than
just the driver that does this. Try reinstalling your software and
restarting your system.

Also, control panel will not necessarily show an icon for "Bluetooth
Devices". That must be for some specific software you've used before,
maybe some different software from what you're using now. My Bluetooth
software (I have a Widcomm adapter) just has a "Bluetooth
Configuration" icon in control panel, and an icon in My Network Places
for "My Bluetooth Places", with an additional option on the left panel
of that window for "Show Bluetooth Devices". So check for some other
ways of using the software if this is not specific software you've
used before.

Re: Blue tooth device


Thank you very much for your time Mike. I loaded APPLICATIONS from my
WIDCOMM cd and that icon come up.
My Nokia 9500 works 100% with XP now.
