Product: hp 500-281

I wish to connect my PC to a cell telephone using Bluetooth, but cannot find a Bluetooth driver/software to activate Bluetooth. 

 

Any suggestions would be great,  Uncle Dewey

Hi:

 

Below is the link to the product specs page for your PC:

 

https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04091805

 

It does not come with built in Bluetooth hardware/networking, or that feature would have been listed under the Network specifications section.

 

The easiest thing to do to add Bluetooth networking to your PC, would be to purchase an external USB Bluetooth adapter.

 

I use this one for example on the HP desktop I am typing this reply on.
