Bluetooth peripherals not connecting after restart

Hi everyone

I've got a Dell Inspiron 1520 using the "Dell Truemobile 355 Bluetooth + EDR" bluetooth device. I bought a Dell wireless keyboard/mouse combo with it. I'm running Vista Ultimate 32-bit and the drivers for the bluetooth device are up to date.

My problem is, whenever I restart the computer the mouse/keyboard won't reconnect. I have to manually go into the Bluetooth Devices window and have it scan for the devices/type in passkeys etc again. The bluetooth device in the computer is always on and I hold down the button on the underside of the devices for a few seconds during restart (to make them discoverable). It's very annoying having to spend a few minutes every start up to get my keyboard/mouse working.

Any ideas? Cheers guys.

try to set device(s) found as 'authorized' after paired. bt devices should still exist after restart or even when device is powered down.

wbr,
