Hey, Pongy92.

I see that you're having an issue with the Bluetooth drivers.

The only solution here would be to wait until the drivers are available.

The good thing for you is most of the drivers you need are backward compatible with Windows 8. Just not the Bluetooth drivers.

Here is a link to show you if your notebook has been detected. http://goo.gl/85swp

I'm sure you can find 3rd party drivers but I would be cautious about that and what you're downloading.

 

Also, could you please provide me with your product #. HERE is a document showing you where to find it.

Until then just bare with them please.

I can't seem to find a driver from a 3rd party that's dependable. My suggestion is to wait it out if you can, until HP releases the drivers.

Below solution worked for me

  1. Open Device manager
  2. Right click on Bluetooth driver and click on update
  3. Click on “Browse my computer for driver software”
  4. Click on “Let me pick from a list of driver in my computer”
  5. Un check “Show compatible hardware” checkbox
  6. Select Cambridge silicon Radio Ltd
  7. Select “Generic Bluetooth radio”
  8. Click next
  9. Click finish

Did you turn on the Bluetooth visibility? By default it is in off state. Also the Bluetooth icon in notification area is off by default. Also the option “Alert me when a new Bluetooth device wants to connect” is also off by default. Search for Bluetooth in start menu and select “Change Bluetooth settings” under settings and you can see these options. Enable them and verify.
