Bluetooth Device Manager in Control Panel - Help!

Hi there,

I'm running Windows XP Professional (SP2) and am having trouble with a
wireless mouse.

All of the help topics I look at refer me to my 'Bluetooth Device' icon in
Control Panel, but I dont actually have a Bluetooth Device icon! Anybody
know why, and how I get it??

Thanks

What make/model is the wireless mouse?

Initially you could try:

Start>Run
bthprops.cpl
That's (cpL) not (i).

Also, You could try Right-click My Computer>Manage>Services and
Applications>Double click Services>Bluetooth Support Services>Start the
Service. Right-click Bluetooth Support Services again>Properties>In the
general tab, select automatic for Startup Type
