041701 - Deep used the procedure for HP to take remote control of c17 and

041721 -            [On 110113 1225 HP technician on site configured Bluetooth
041722 -            mouse; Bluetooth internal adapter was not installed
041723 -            according to HP documentation; after making correction, the
041724 -            mouse was recognized by Bluetooth "Add Device" program.

042509 - and if that fails we will try something else.
