I recommend you disable Bluetooth and Wifi from the BIOS or UEFI. You can usually power down the radios that way. Other methods, like disabling drivers and masking services, do not necessarily power down the radios. They effectively disable communications with the chips, but the chips are still powered on and possibly working. Jeff
