    hello everything is perfect on windows 7 except that i cant turn on my bluetooth, Wireless network works fine, but the same switch wich turns on wifi and bluetooth turns on only wifi.... Somehow drivers for "wireless select switch" (wich should turn on bluetooth when I press FN+F2 few times..) doesn't work anymore on w7.I wonder is there any new driver for windows 7 ?
    It showed that wireless select switch supports only vista operating system.
    It's not a really big deal but sometimes bluetooth is a good thing :)
    Any ideas? Thanks for help :)

    Btw. Google doesn't know anything that could help... :confused:

    Have you installed your motherboard drivers? Not all devices are recognised by w7.

    I will try it later. Drivers is kind'a installed, but it is asking me to turn on my BT. I cant do that without wireless selelect switch :(

    Edit: I tried the solution but its the same... I just can't turn it on! :/
