Is it possible that the device could be on this bus?

Thats very unlikely. I have never heard of either ISA or SMBus Bluetooth
devices. The closest thing is one with CF interface, which might also be
used with a ISA bus. But given the price of a USB chip... no. Can't you
look at the hardware and google every chip until you find the right one?

I don't quite follow what you're suggesting I do here. Do you mean physically checking the hardware - I wasn't tempted to open the machine up.

The laptop is pretty new, and either everybody else has just managed to get this working easily, or not many people have really tried.


Thanks for your reply,

Cheers,

Richard
