Bluetooth Device Manager is Missing

My Thinkpad X40 Model 2371 is suppose to have bluetooth. I have the option to enable it in BIOS. But I have no device manager/utility in the control panel or anywhere else. I want to connect to my Nokia but have no where to begin.

I'm running Windows XP SP2.

Ok good, I got the drivers installed, the Bluetooth Manager is now present however it won't open. I get an error "Bluetooth device not present". Also there is no bluetooth listed in my device manager. Is it possible that my laptop doesn't have the card inside?

> and front of the hinge cover

I guess that's the inside edge of the LCD bezel, not the hinge cover.

Dang, I don't have a bluetooth logo on the LCD lid. I looked closely, it's not there. Fn + F5 brings up the "Change Power Settings of Wireless Radios" window, where it lists my current wireless network. I have a modem, it is working.
