All of sudden my Bluetooth has suddenly stopped working. Its says "Not Available" in the menu bar. There is no icon in System Preferences either.

I've tried zapping the PRAM, doing a PMU reset, repaired permissions, reinstalled the 10.4.7 update and nothing has worked.

In the last few minutes I noticed the Bluetooth has worked again for about a 30 seconds and then disappears again and hasn't worked since.

Tried booting up with a backup that has 10.4.6 installed. Bluetooth still not working.

Also tried booting in XP and Bluetooth still doesn't seem to work. Although, I'm not sure if it ever did in XP anyway.
