    Hi guys,

    I searched many solutions for enabling bluetooth on my Dell Vostro 1520. I checked on BIOS but there's no any option for bluetooth. I downloaded Dell Wireless Bluetooth 355 driver, but when I install, it said "Press Fn+F2 or Raido On/Off". I tried Fn+F2 but there's nothing happened.
    The blue led for bluetooth even not working.

    I really stuck on that. Please help!
    Thanks!

    Too lazy to look it up/try it again, but if I recall correctly, there's a funny thing you have to do for the 355 - there's a separate program (I don't remember what it's called on the Dell download page) that'll basically "activate" the device such that it shows up in device manager. Then you can install the actual driver. Of course, make sure it's detected in enabled in BIOS as well.
