If that does not help, try the steps below.

Click on Start Button, Control Panel, System. Next check to see if your have a "Bluetooth device in your list (should be at the top under Bluetooth Radio's)

maybe you can read this


Bluetooth hardware and software (Bluetooth Stack) is necessary in order to use Bluetooth.
Please turn your Notebook upside down and check whether or not a Bluetooth sticker is attached.
Check your product model sticker string above the serial number, if it includes a
"B" (=Bluetooth) near the end. In both cases Bluetooth is built-in.

A internal Bluetooth module should be in your system if the "System devices"
section of the "Device Manager" shows a "Bluetooth ACPI from Toshiba" device.
Have a look at the "Device Manager" picture below for more details.

Ensure that just one Bluetooth hardware is installed.

Read the “TOSHIBA->Bluetooth Hardware” section of the following webpage to find a suitable Bluetooth hardware:
