    Guys, guys, why are you all complining about the bluetooth and other hardwares after your format, do you guys have the Acer CD (Color green) included in the box? After your reformat or if its brand new and not formatted by your supplier you should also install those things in the Green ACER CD, I reformatted my ACER 4730Z too because I just want too, some don’t function like you said, I called acer and they said if I already installed the drivers etc. And there, its fixed, if that bluetooth still don’t work, then maybe you just stole it or something xD
