Have you tried updating your drivers on your computer? You can do this through either the Device Manager in the Control Panel or use a product like Driver Reviver to scan and detect out of date drivers for you.

Is that just for bluetooth or the USB problem also?

Yes there are driver for USB and for Bluetooth. All hardware installed on your computer uses a driver to make it work with your operating system. These drivers should be kept up to date to make sure everything works as it should. You can also try running a Windows Update to see if that might fix the problem.

Hi Thinh. Both devices require drivers. USB drivers are generally included in Windows because they offer built-in support. However, you may need to download and install the latest driver for your Bluetooth chipset. Let us know where you are with this and we\'ll help you out!

Hi Thinh,

Try uninstalling the wireless components(Bluetooth,Wifi) Drivers and then restartig the Laptop and let the Windows detect the Hardware on its own.
Then it will search the windows update and download the required driver.

If this does not work then you can try the below steps:
  1. Open Run (Win+R)
  2. Key in devmgmt.msc
  3. The Bluetooth will be available as an Unkown Device.
  4. Roght click on the icon and press Update Driver Software.
  5. The click on the Automatically Search the Web Option.
This should work for you.

Regards,
Lokesh.
