Hello Sushovan-M. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. I understand you are looking for a Bluetooth Windows 8.1 RALink driver, compatible with this computer. Unfortunately, no such driver exists, at this time. If you return the computer to Windows 8, you will be able to use the computer's Bluetooth feature.
Exat same problem with 470 G0. The weird thing is that a few months back when i first installed windows 8.1 i could enable hyper-v and was running fine. Now after fresh installation no way to get it running.
It would help to know which product and operating system you are using. For information on finding your product and model numbers click here: How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
Take a look at this guide for connecting an Android phone to a Windows PC: How to Use Bluetooth to Transfer Files between a Computer and an Android Tablet. This article is for an Android tablet but the steps should be the same.
I am having problems with Bluetooth on my pc not even being visible to turn off and on, it's not showing up in the device manager but if I go to & apps and features it shows there is a driver installed but nothing showing up. When I originally had my PC running on windows 11 my bluetooth was there and working since doing updates that DST has told me to do I performed the latest for my bluetooth to disappear completely.
I have a Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX210 160MHz driver installed for my wireless however no matter what combination I have tried whether it was a fresh install of the drivers (removing them, restarting computer with no internet connection and then installing the drivers manually) which failed and the DST is showing my device drivers as up to date. I have also tried rolling back the driver which did not work and I really do not want to have to fresh rebuild my entire operating system already but I am getting to a loss on how to resolve this.
In this case, we would recommend first checking the BIOS settings in case there is an option related to the Bluetooth that might be disabled or Off. For this task, we recommend reviewing your computer's User Manual or contacting ASUS* Support for proper assistance.
If such as Bluetooth setting is Enabled/On, we recommend trying a clean installation of both Bluetooth and Wireless drivers. The driver or software for your Intel component might have been changed or replaced by the computer manufacturer, therefore, we recommend trying this first with the customized drivers from Asus* website. Please download and save the following drivers:
I have tried these steps however it seems that every time I uninstalled the driver it wouldn't remove, when it finally removed and stayed removed from the device manager I restarted and checked it hadn't reappeared which it had not, I tried to install the ASUS drivers to which did not even appear to install the devices whatsoever. It literally did nothing when trying to run and running it as administrator. I even restarted the computer to check they didn't need a restart.
I then tried the fresh install of the Intel drivers as advised as the secondary drivers to install. The Bluetooth driver seemed to install however is still not displaying in the device manager (please see attached screenshot of the device manager (this is set to show hidden devices too)) yet it shows installed on the Apps and features (please see attached apps & features) I then tried to reinstall the WIFI driver and it keeps failing to install and no longer lists the device in the device manager.
4- Check Device Manager, if you see entries regarding Wireless and Bluetooth, try to manually remove the drivers following the Clean installation articles: (if you don't see these entries, skip to the next step)
I tried the above as asked nether the less and still neither device works. Looking at my device manager now it appears that only one of my 2 ethernet ports are functioning properly too. (Please see attached ethernet port error.png).
I first of all disconnected from the internet and removed all the intel software listed above with discarding the settings (please see attached apps&features.png) I then rebooted the computer and opened device manager and removed all the wireless drivers and bluetooth drivers until they had completely disappeared and did not show up again. I then cleared all temporary files using check disk and the system temporary files too.
I then restarted my computer and attempted to install the ASUS drivers which did nothing, I then went into device manager and manually added the device driver which gave the following results (please see bluetoothinstall.png). I checked device manager and saw no bluetooth still but decided to try the wireless install which gave the following results (please see WI-FI install.png). however nothing appeared in the device manager after scanning for hardware changes still nothing so I restarted the computer.
I then opened device manager again and noticed that it has installed the device as a "network controller" listed under the other devices (please see attached Other.png) category. I then uninstalled this and repeated the process this time for the intel drivers to which has done the exact same and has now left my ethernet driver showing the above mentioned image ethernet port error.png
When you restarted the computer, did you have internet access completely disabled? If not, you are going to have Windows Update step in and install the same junk as before. You need to ensure this that you have no internet connection until after you have manually installed the various driver packages that you have downloaded.
After reviewing this, the best action is to contact the computer manufacturer (OEM) for more assistance since this seems to be related to hardware issues and may need a further inspection from your OEM. However, before that, you may try the following suggestions.
There is a good chance though that the card may just be burned out. I have to replace mine more than I should. It gets too hot sometimes. That model does not come with a heat sink so 80% shot that it fried itself. It happens but you shouldn't have to worry about it shorting out your PCI lane. Grab a replacement with maybe a heat sink or a fan or do what I do and install it under the graphics card fan to use it's cooling fan (yes, still warm but not hot) to regulate temps.

The real correct answer is to download broadcom bluetooth system driver for you windows on macbook. When you go to the broadcom driver site it doesnt show the drivers anymore so the new page to get the drivers are here:
If non of this works you can alway type WIDCOMM BLUETOOTH SOFTWARE WINDOWS 7 64 BIT and just download the drivers from one of the popular computer brands and that should work like hp dell or lenovo. I know for sure that lenovo drivers work on windows for mac. So hopfully this helps out if you have any question feel free to contact apple support and refer them what mbran136 said on this page. I really hope that this helps someone out. I would like to someday work for a computer company and help just responding to questions like this......
What are you trying to accomplish? The only thing you can do via bluetooth with a computer is tethering for Internet access. The iPhone doesn't support bluetooth file transfer and you can't sync via bluetooth.
During the update process, Microsoft Windows* should install the basic Bluetooth* drivers that allow you to use your Intel Bluetooth adapter. Please let us know if you were able to use Bluetooth after the update using the inbox driver.
I have the same issue with a Centrino Wireless-n 2230. I have a Toshiba U925T-2300 which was running Windows 8.1. I ran the update to Windows 10 and fell foul of the "Cisco VPN" problem where no network adapters appeared. To try and resolve that I downloaded and installed the latest drivers from the Toshiba site. That made no difference but once I found the fix for the VPN issue it all began to work (Wi-Fi and bluetooth). But after a couple of days suddenly it is failing again.
When I look in device manager I see only the Wi-Fi device, not the bluetooth devices. The bluetooth indicator light on the front panel has gone out. Windows will not allow me to turn on Wi-Fi - I move the slider to 'on' and it moves right back to 'off'. I assume that Windows 10 updated the driver for me (thanks!) and now it's not working.
The driver 18.1.1525.1445 is the current one available from -Centrino-Wireless-N-2230-Single-Band Download Center for the Bluetooth* component of the Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230. There is no need for you to update this device driver, so you can uncheck the update, or cancel the operation.
- Try uninstalling Intel Wireless Bluetooth from the Programs menu, and also the Bluetooth adapter from Device Manager (if it is detected). Then proceed to install the Driver 18.1.1525.1445 you downloaded before.
- If the issue persists, contact the Computer Manufacturer Support, they will be able to let you know if your PC is supported with Windows* 10, or if they are aware of any situation specific to your computer.
- Also, consider that there may have been a problem during the Windows* upgrade process (since the Bluetooth adapter is not detected after trying different methods). You might want need to go back to your previous OS, remove the Bluetooth software and uninstall/delete the driver, the proceed with the OS upgrade.
