Internal Devices Laptop's with Proprietary Software
Some laptops require their own software installed as well as the Widcomm drivers. Toshiba, and Sony both produce Bluetooth enabled laptops that have a software "switch" to disable or enable Bluetooth. If your device isn't detected after the main installation you may need to install the original software.
