M6600 Bluetooth not detecting any devices

Question

My bluetooth does not detect any devices. I have re-installed all drivers. My devices are detected and work fine on other machines. I replaced the antenna with another that I know is good and that had no impact. I also cleaned up the registry. Any thoughts on what might be going on or what else to try?

'Got the same problem. everyting is on, but the bluetooth logo is still un lighted. What should we do ? ' This is a perplexing problem. I wiped my hard drive and re-installed eveything from scratch. Bluetooth worked for awhile - a couple of hours - and then ceased to wrk. However, I can now get the Bluetooth mouse icon, I just can't get the mouse to function. Nor will Bluetooth detect my cell phone. I lost my connection I installed the Yahoo toolbar in FireFox. Maybe it was a coincidence, and de-intalling the toolbar didn't restore Bluetooth functionality.
