MemberHaving just recovered using the Samsung software and losing a lot of installed software etc because of it I deliberately didn’t install any Bluetooth updates yet I am still getting the the following message:
Bluetooth license check failed. Please make sure the Bluetooth device is plugged in/turned on, the device you are using is licensed for this software and that your license has not expired.
I did a recovery to try and overcome this problem and it is still there and turns bluetooth off,
Any suggestions welcome.

MemberCould be a faulty Bluetooth installation. I’m guessing it’s not hardware based otherwise I would expect it to be giving you more issues than it’s worth. A wild stab would be that the software has a registry fault / corruption somewhere that is preventing it allocating a valid license key for it to transmit / receive on.
Have you modded anything on it? Replaced anything hardware wise? What else do you have plugged in to the Sammy? The reason I ask is XP always had a fondness of allocating too many items to a single IRQ causing them to collide.
If your still running XP try this:
1/ Right click on my computer
2/ Select Properties
3/ Select Hardware
4/ Select Device Manager
5/ Once device manager is open you should see a expandable list of bluetooth devices (not sure on wording)
6/ Delete using the ‘Delete’ key. If Windows queries you select ‘yes, you are sure’.
7/ Reboot the netbook.
8/ Once Windows kicks in it should hopefully reinstall the Bluetooth drivers / software that originally existed with Samsungs installation.This should resolve the issue.

[/quote1230064031]Thanks I tried all that before doing a full recovery in desparation.
I did wonder if it was originally caused by downloading and installing the USA Bluetooth update.
Apart from 2Gb RAM my NC10 was as out of the box especially after the recovery.
The only related software installed after recovery, and after getting the infernal message again, is the Samsung phone PC Studio.
On a brighter note after the reappearance of the message I installed the UK update and fingers crossed have not seen the message again yet.
I am not entirely convinced its gone because I went days without getting a message and then all of a sudden it would occur and keep reoccuring, each time turning Bluetooth off.

MemberKeep us posted. I found that I had to do a recovery to get rid of the MS Bluetooth update, it totally screwed my notebook over too.
