Driver for Bluetooth

[Cristishor]

Hi guys,

Can you help me finding the driver for Bluetooth, for my Windows 7 64 bit ?

I searched a lot but without any luck. At some point I discovered this install which it finished properly until the end, but I don't get any option in Computer Management for Bluetooth, and also any network adapter for it.

I have a HP 250 G6 Notebook PC.

Hi:

What model wifi adapter does your notebook have?

Whether or not the notebook has bluetooth is dependent on the model wifi adapter it has.

If you don't know, go to the device manager, click to expand the Network Adapters device manager category, and there you will find the name and model number of the wireless network adapter.

My Wi-fi adapter it's Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168

Hi:

You would need this W7 bluetooth driver for that model wifi card...2nd file down on the left is for 64 bit.

Al right. I did this.

But now, I can't find the bluetooth icon app. 

I can't see any bluetooth adapter, and it looks like I don't have bluetooth instaled at all at the Computer Management, beside it has some files on the C drive.

PS: I already restarted the PC.

Install the HP connection manager software, restart the PC, and see if you can turn on the bluetooth by using the HP connection manager software controls...

This package provides the HP Connection Manager for supported notebook models running a supported operating system.

Yes. I installed but ... I don't know how to use it.

I discovered that I can run Bluetooth Device Operations and Settings, and there it looks like this :Bluetooth is not enable

So my guess it's I have to enable it somehow ...

What does the connection manager show when you launch it?

You should have an option to turn the bluetooth on using the connection manager software.

Hi:

Looking at your screenshot, there is no existance of any bluetooth hardware as you pointed out.

I guess that model wifi card only works completely on W10.
