Remove the battery, near the right edge of the E1505 is a small clip door, remove it. Inside is the connector. Not sure how the module attaches, clip, screw, etc. should be obvious.

Make sure both the BT in the BIOS is on and you install the driver. Should work.

Enabled in BIOS Setup (tap F2 on first boot screen) Fn/F2 will turn it (and WiFi) on/off.

WinXP(SP2) has a Bluetooth Stack that auto installs the moment you turn on the Bluetooth, even in the middle of your install of the Dell Stack/Driver.

The MS Stack must be removed in Device Manager.
