    Hello,
    I need some help. I can't install bluetooth on my laptop. When i use Acer's manufacturer discover, it says that my bluetooth is Broadcom. I found several Broadcom bluetooth drivers, and not one is good. Have anyone had same problem? Please help me. Thank you.

    Did you use Fn+F3 to enable Bluetooth?
    Does it show in device manager?

    Are we talking Windows 7 or 8?
