Hi:

 

What model wifi adapter does your PC have?

 

Bluetooth is a function of the wifi card.

 

Some wifi cards are combination wifi/bluetooth, and some are wifi only.

If your PC didn't come with an internal wifi adapter from HP, then it didn't come with bluetooth either.

 

Bluetooth is co-located on the internal wifi card.

 

So if you want bluetooth, you will need to also purchase a USB bluetooth adapter.

 

I use this one on my HP desktop PC's that don't have an internal wifi/bluetooth card...
