Check for hard disk drive errors:

Possible solution
Ensure the device and your computer are the correct distance apart—not too
far and not too near. For the correct distance, refer to the device instructions.
Remove and then reinstall the device:
1 Click the Windows Vista start button, and then click
Control Panel.
2 Click Hardware and Sound, and then click Bluetooth Devices.
3 Select the device that is not working, and then click Remove.
4 Click Add, press the reset button on the device, place a check mark in the
My device is set up and ready to be found check box, and then
click Next.
5 Follow the onscreen wizard instructions.
The device may have too many connections. Either wait until the device is less
busy, or set the other devices so they are not discoverable. For information on
how to turn off discoverability, refer to the device instructions.
Ensure other devices that use radio frequencies (for example, microwave
ovens, cordless phones, and 802.11 wireless networks) are not creating
interference. Try moving the device that is not working farther away from other
devices.
