Your only option would be the Intel Centrino advanced wireless-N 1030 + Bluetooth® combo 802.11b/g/n 1x2 with WiDi support  HP part # 631956-001, listed in chapter 3 of the service manual, and there is no guarantee it will work, since that is not the one that came with your PC.

 

If the card works, so would the Bluetooth.
