Does my laptop have bluetooth?

To make a long story short, Acer had to send me a new laptop, the Acer guy I talked to didn't think it had bluetooth. When I first played with the laptop I slid the bluetooth switch on it, the light came on and I didn't investigate further. I then wiped the laptop to get rid of the Acer bloatware etc, installed XP Pro SP2, downloaded and installed all the Acer drivers, and then tried the bluetooth. No light, no luck. There is a "bluetooth Bus enumerator" present in the device manager, however I used the Belarc Advisor system scanner and the only communication devices listed were the 802.11, 10/100 ethernet, modem, and VPN client I installed.

How do I find out if my laptop has bluetooth? If it has a bluetooth bus enumerator (what is that?) does that mean it has bluetooth?

I have an Acer Aspire 5580-6432.

Thanks
