    I just bought a Dell M1710 with integrated bluetooth and I am trying to use it so I can use my bluetooth mouse. I looked in the owners manual and on the web and can't figure out how to do it. Someone please help...

    You have to pair it first. Read the documentation on your mouse. Saying i have a blue tooth mouse doesn't help us any know what you have.
