Many times with laptops, there will be a button somewhere on the machine itself that lets you turn bluetooth on and off. It is usually next to your wireless on/off switch and has a bluetooth logo on or near it.

If it is an off/on type switch, make sure it is on. If it is a rocker-type switch, slide it and see if any lights on your laptop light up or turn off (when the light is on, Bluetooth should be on).

Once you know you have your bluetooth switch on, if it still does not work, restart and boot into your BIOS setup (usually DELETE, F2, or F10 when the computer is first coming on). Make sure "ONBOARD BLUETOOTH" or something like that is on.

Otherwise, it sounds like an issue you need to take up with the laptop manufacturer. If you have found your switch, made sure it is on, and activated bluetooth in your BIOS, then post back if you are still having issues.

Good luck!
