I bought this laptop just a couple of weeks ago but I can't get the bluetooth to maintain a connection. It connects to other devices but drops the connection within a few seconds

Hi @ianb1959 

 

 

Thank you for your query, I will do my best to be of aid!

 

 

I grasp that your new notebook  is able to connect to Bluetooth devices but shortly afterward it wiil disconnect or drop the connection.

 

Have you done all your Windows updates?

 

Have you tried using the  Using automated troubleshooting (Windows 😎 to resolve this issue?

 

Here is a link to Understanding and troubleshooting Bluetooth wireless technology (Windows 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP) for you to follow.

 

If you are still having a difficulty try these steps.

 

Step 1. Go to device manager
Step 2. Right click on "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" that you want
Step 3. Select "Update Driver Software..."
Step 4. Choose "Browse my computer for driver software"
Step 5. Choose "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
Step 6. Select "Ports (COM & LPT)"
Step 7. Select "Microsoft" at "Manufacturer" list
Step 8. Finally select "Standard Serial over Bluetooth link"

If you are still unable to pair with a Bluetooth device try the following:

Step 1. Search for "Change device" in the Windows 8 Start menu.
Step 2. Click on where it says Change device installation settings.
Step 3. Select the No, let me choose what to do option.
Step 4. Check the automatically get the device app option
Step 5. Click Save changes to save the settings you just chose

As well you can try this


Step 1: Go to RUN (Windows Logo + R) and type “services.msc” and Enter
Step 2: Now find “Bluetooth Support Service” and double click on it
Step 3: Now click on Log On Tab and Type in "Local Service" without quotes
Step 4. Click on “This Account”
Step 5: Now remove any passwords leave the password field blank
Step 6: Underneath the upper left title should be a hyperlink "Start" Click it

You can also check  the Power Management tab and unchecked the box that says "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power."

 

My last suggestion is to call HP support for assistance.  With it being only a couple of weeks old you should be in warranty.  They can remotely access your system to help diagnose and resolve your issue.
