md4life Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 i had disabled the bluetooth device hardware and now it won't show up at all in the device manager...already checked the bios but no way to enable/disable device from even the bios; afraid it might've been deleted from the bios as well or it could've been re-written during a recent bios update...any help would be very much appreciated..thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also are you using XP Pro or Home or 64bit?thx for your help... but it looks like i might've already solved this one..tried a little registry hack from the eldergeek website that forces device manager to show all devices (http://www.theeldergeek.com/show_hidden_devices_in_device_manager.htm)i'm gonna try to reformat xp32 as a fresh install to see if the hack holds or if i have to keep applying this patch manually every single time...thank you again for your quick response Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
