How to install bluetooth on acer 7730G?

Hello,
My Acer 7730G has a Bluetooth quick access key, but when I click on it, it says: "no device." I would like to know how I can make it Bluetooth-enabled. I saw that there are USB keys that can make the PC Bluetooth, but I want my computer to be Bluetooth without having to connect a key. I assume there is a component to install, but if that's the case, do you know which one and how to install it? Thank you in advance.
Franck.

    A tip for everyone: for email addresses, replace the "@" with "à" to prevent automated servers from picking up your address for ads, as most people will automatically replace the "à" with "@" but the servers won't see anything

    Oh yes, there’s everything but that!!!! (or almost!). Apparently, the Bluetooth module costs around €60 and seems pretty tricky to install. I really don't want to take apart my PC and end up with spare parts!!! I didn’t pay attention to that when I bought it because for me, today’s PCs came with Bluetooth as standard!! Well, NO!!!

      Totally!!! It really pissed me off when I had to figure out all by myself that he totally scammed me!!!!!!!! I was just looking for that on a laptop, it really got on my nerves!!!
      But oh well, too bad, just do like me and buy a Bluetooth dongle, it will cost you less and you’ll stress out 10 times less!!! LOL!!!! Good luck!!

      Good evening, sorry for the delay in responding, but I wasn't online before. Of course I would like the solution, here is my MSN address, "franck.pitois@hotmail.fr", I searched a bit on the net but didn't find an appropriate module for Acer 7730G.

    I also noticed this on two Acer PCs, there is everything except the Bluetooth device and it's really a shame

    Thank you for the link, but apparently it is not compatible with the 7730G. I will look into it a bit more and ask the seller a question. Thanks again, that's nice of you.

    Bluetooth key, apparently it's the most practical, that's for sure, but it's annoying to have a Bluetooth button on your PC that doesn't do anything!!!! Anyway, it's not the most important for me, just disappointed. Thanks for your comments, I know what to expect now, especially since I can't find the module for 7730G online, so forget about Bluetooth for me!!!!! ....PS: it's still a shame to sell PCs with GeForce, Duocore, etc... without integrated Bluetooth, but well, it's up to us to check before buying!!!!

    So if I buy this key, can I send music to my Samsung phone via the key?

      Logically yes, if your phone is Bluetooth-enabled there is no problem, but I would still advise you to use a USB cable if you have one. The transfer will be faster.
