M1210 - Problems when installing bluetooth

I just recieved my XPS M1210.
The first thing i did was to reinstall a clean copy of windows.

But i cant install my bluetooth card (Dell Wireless 350 Bluetooth Internal Module)

I downloaded the drivers from the webpage but when i try to install i get some problems with "One Click". It tells me to connect my computer before I can continue.

Do i have to do anything special to install the bluetooth?

Are you positive you have the bluetooth? If so try to download the drivers again, make your its your comp and everything is right then download it. You should decompress it like all the other driver and just say open and it should start right up. Mine did everytime. It will update the firmware of the card also. I have no clue what One Click is that you were talking about though

Not so sure about that anymore. Been installing for an hour now. It goes right to 56% and then stops. Computer doesnt freeze or anything but the installation seems to do nothing.

If you mean AntiVirus i have none.

I am pretty sure that the Bluetooth is not installed. I think that "BCM2045" is the bluetooth device?


And it wont install. Or else the install takes ridiculously long time.
Install has been on 56% for 2hours now.

Bcm2045 to my knowledge isnt the bluetooth, It should be listed as Dell Wireless Bluetooth 350 INternal Card. Maybe try to take out the card and reseat the cable. I have no clue whats going on there, it may be time to contact dell. Maybe the card is bad.

One more Idea...

Go here..

http://support.euro.dell.com/support...&fileid=156024

And download that driver and try to install it. Let me know how it goes.

I suppose it should be listed as Dell Wireless Bluetooth 350 INternal Card when it is installed. But right now it isnt installed as you can see. I doubt the card is broken since my friend has the exact same problem. I think the bluetooth worked before i reinstalled everyting.

So i do belive this is a drivers issue.

Yes, that was the first driver i tried. It doesnt work for me or my 2 friends (we all bought the M1210 at the same time). One of my friend tried his bluetooth before he reinstalled his computer and it worked then.
