Re: Dell 1525 bluetooth question.
According to this page http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/prod...hs1&l=en&s=dhs, Bluetooth is OPTIONAL. So you may not have it. AFAIK Dell customer service has a way of knowing given the model and serial number.

Re: Dell 1525 bluetooth question.
Thanks for the info TriggerFinder, well i tried to use the Chat facility in the dell support software that came with the laptop but it seems my warranty has expired and am not able to talk to any rep ... so if i have the bluetooth .. what and how would it be displayed as in the device manager?

Re: Dell 1525 bluetooth question.
There should be an icon in Control Panel (at least for some laptops). Also try under Programs.
