Bluetooth etc

[gina50]

Hi, I was recently given a new Compaq with Windows 7 as a present. I cannot locate the Blutooth. The light's on but noting happens when I try to send from my phone - which is workin fine. I went to a computer shop today and was told that Laptops don't come with Bluetooth, Ineed to buy a USB. Help.

Bluetooth is a piece of hardware that you need to buy, they don't automaticly come with new computers.
"Help."
Try here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&Description=bluetooth+dongle
or go back to the shop and get one there, I fail to understand why you didn't do so while you were there as they are not very expensive.
