We've had a few other customers that had some initial difficulty, but they had not performed the following steps after installing the drivers:

# On Windows XP with Microsoft Standard Bluetooth software installed, you must perform the following steps in order to complete the installation of the Integrated Bluetooth II software.

# Turn the Bluetooth power on (turning it on differs depending on model):

a) Some models have a BT power button towards the middle bottom of the display (some T30 models have it; and some don’t)

b) If you do not have a power button, try pressing Fn+F5 and enabling it with the ThinkVantage package (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4ZLNJB).

c) If you happen to have a T30 without a switch, you may need to run this instead of Fn+F5 (you will still have to have the ThinkVantage software installed for this to work (it may be in several locations):

C:\Program Files\ThinkPad\PkgMgr\HOTKEY\TpFnF5.exe

C:\Program Piles\thinkpad\connectutilities\TpFnF5.exe

C:\drivers\7AVU12WW\OSD\common\TpFnF5.exe

C:\Program Files\Lenovo\PkgMgr\HOTKEY\TpFnF5.exe

C:\ibmtools\drivers\hotkey\osd\common\TpFnF5.exe

d) If you cannot find TpFnF5.exe on your hard drive, you may need to install the IBM Access Connections (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4ZLNJB). After installing that, look for the program AcFnF5.exe. That program needs to be run from the command line with a command line option of /BTON. So, you would need to open the command prompt, browse to where the AcFnF5.exe is on your computer, and then run AcFnF5 /BTON.

e) If c or d didn’t do the trick, here is another command to try:

C:\DRIVERS\WIN\BDC\Tools\BDCPWR.EXE

# Click Start, select Control Panel.

# Click Performance and Maintenance, then click System.

# Click the Hardware tab, then click Device Manager.

# Double-click Bluetooth Radios.

# Double-click Integrated Bluetooth II.

# Click the Driver tab, then click the Update Driver... button.

# Select Install from a list or specific location then click Next.

# Select Don't search. I will choose the driver to install, then click Next.

# Select the driver without the Digital Signed icon, and click Next.

# When a pop-up window appears, click the Continue Anyway button.

# Click Finish to close window.

I found a troubleshooting page on IBM's site for BT cards as well:

Also, I found these drivers (though they don't list the T30):
