If switchin on d button shows only "WLAN ON" & doesnt show "BLUETOOTH ON" den it doesnt hv blutot instald & u may nid 2 buy an adapter. Dere r intanal & external but i'd advice u 2 buy d extanal, its usually very small & flat & nt expensive. D intanal wud require technical expeqtise(dat is if deres even space allocated on d pc), quite costly & if nt done by an expert, ur popsi wil eat u raw oh!!! |

See buddie, there is every possibility that it has no bluetooth so don't worry yourself. Buy bluetooth hardware, its just like a flash drive but smaller, and enjoy! |

I'm pretty sure it comes with bluetooth inbuilt. I really hope your dad didn't pay 230k for it, though. The HP Tx tablets are nothing to write home about, both in terms of hardware and reliability. |

@lynx. i advise you to get a lenovo thinkpad from the T series. can get one for u |
Re: I Just Got An Hp Touchsmart Notebook Pc,i Can't Find The Bluetooth. Help! by texazzpete(m): 8:01pm On Jul 05, 2009 |
The highest end model is the Tx2, and it costs N180k in comp villa. The TX series is plagued by hardware reliability issues. Users forums are often inundated with users complaining. I personally know three people with either motherboard failures, screen issues or Dvd rom stops working. The hardware is typically a dual core AMD cpu clocked at 2.0 - 2Ghz. Not a match for the more powerful Core 2 Duos. also the graphics card is relatively weak for 3D gaming. it's also rather heavy for a tablet, and the tablet features are not enough to justify the cost. For the same amount, you can easily snag a far more powerful laptop Core 2 duo laptop with better reliability, bigger screen and more powerful hardware. if you really want portability, the same dough can snag you a decent dell for N120k and an acer Aspire One netbook for 60k. Just my two cents worth. |

lynxnoon:it depends on your budget. i personally own a lenovo Thinkpad T400. cost me approx. £1000. got it in UK. i don't like my screen too small or big, so i settled for a 14 incher and i like a lappie i can carry around effortlessly with a battery life of about 5hours! i use a lot of business softwares so i chose a powerful processor: intel core 2 duo P8600, 2.4Ghz clockspeed, 1066Mhz FSB. 320GB HDD. switchable graphic.(ATI discrete video card plus intel integrated video card) rugged build, spill-resistant key board, touch light(thinklight) etc. The machine is just tight. for about £730 you could get a lenovo thinkpad R series which share almost the same features as the T series. anyway do your research, and let me know. |

@flyuche one more tin, b4 i start my research hw does ubuntu or mint fare on it? |
Re: I Just Got An Hp Touchsmart Notebook Pc,i Can't Find The Bluetooth. Help! by flyuche(m): 10:24pm On Jul 05, 2009 |
@lynx what do you expect? with a machine like that Ubuntu was flying! just some drawback. the fingerprint reader doesn't work, switchable graphic doesn't work, you have to make the switch from the BIOS., and some useful properiety thinkpad software i love don't work in linux i learnt that openSUSE and Fedora have the fingerprint driver. linux works great with thinkpads. IBM(lenovo) has long supported linux in thinkpads. |
