Thanks for the post and Welcome to HP Forums @TaurusX

 

I see you are unable to pair you a bluetooth headphone with your computer running on Windows 7. Happy to help. 

Have you tried any troubleshooting steps on your own?

 

Recommend you to update the wireless driver and Bluetooth driver on your computer using HP Support Assistant.

Make sure the wireless button on your computer is ON and open device manager.

Check if Bluetooth is listed in device manager and is enabled. 

Make sure the Bluetooth headset is not paired with any other device. 

Have the Bluetooth headset off, open the Bluetooth utility and when it is searching for Bluetooth devices, turn the Bluetooth headset ON. 

If the headset is still not getting detected, recommend you to run the troubleshooter from the control panel. 

Refer to this article for other troubleshooting steps. 

 

Let me know how it goes.

Installed HP Support Assistant updates bluetooth but did not install! I do not have bluetooth even though the original driver (Intel PROSet Bluetooth Driver
v.1.2 Rev. B 144.4 MB Nov 7, 2011) I found!

Thanks for the reply, recommend you to install the driver from Intel website and check. Also, please run the troubleshooter available in the control panel. 

 

Let me know how it goes.

Installed, but he found nothing! 😞

HP Recommended

Thanks for the reply and installing the driver directly from Intel website. Recommend you to unpair the Bluetooth headset, turn the headset off. Shut down the computer.

Turn the computer on. Make sure the wireless button is on. Open the Bluetooth utility, search for Bluetooth devices and during the search, turn the Bluetooth headset on. Check if the Bluetooth headset light is blinking or stable. 

If the issue persists, recommend you to try any other Bluetooth device with your computer and also contact the Bluetooth headset manufacturer for assistance. 

 

Let me know how it goes. Good Luck.
