Bluetooth Device manager in control panel not working?

[Guest]

I have been cruising along the vista highway on my Dell XPS M1210. Using the
Dell wireless mouse and keyboard has been great up until today. The keyboard
was turned off and is now not recognized when its turned back on.

No probs I will just do a search and re sync it right? Wrong, The program
'Bluetooth Devices' in control panel is just a pretty icon which does nothing
when clicked on.

Ideas, thoughts, solutions would be greatly appreciated.

I have wireless mouse and keyboard but they are not Bluetooth linked.

Normally you plus in a USB radio.

Check by clicking the keyboard and mouse icon separately in Control panel.
Click the hardware Tab, select the mouse or keyboard listed and click
Properties to find out what you have connected and how.

If your keyboard is not showing reload it from the supplied CD.
