Hi:

 

See if you can get the Intel 7260 BT to work by watching this video:

 

Intel 7260 Wifi/Bluetooth Card Fix (youtube.com)

 

If you get the BT to show up, let me know and I will give you the link to the Bluetooth driver you need, since they are not available anymore.

 

I saved the last Wi-Fi and Bluetooth driver that Intel released for that model Wi-Fi card to my Skydrive folder.

Saw here in the recommendations to install an intel 7260 network card. 

I bought one but the situation is the same, bluetooth doesn't work

It worked. Thank you 👍

The card was detected and I had drivers for it.

But the sound is jerky. I don't think they're quite right.

HP Recommended

I found the driver version 21.10.1. But it doesn't work properly, the sound jerks and freezes

HP Recommended

You're very welcome.

 

21.10.1 was the last driver Intel released for the 7260 Bluetooth, and I unfortunately I would not know how to troubleshoot a problem like that.

 

Here's an older version from Dell if you want to take a chance on it...

 

Intel 3160/7260/3165/7265/8260/8265 Bluetooth Driver | Driver Details | Dell US

I also tried these drivers and unfortunately without success

HP Recommended

I managed to find a solution and at this link you can find the drivers with which I finally launched

Apparently the problem was in the Intel drivers which conflicted with the drivers from the Bluetooth Card

After removing them and reinstalling the equipment again with Bluetooth drivers BCM20702a0

, everything worked
