    Hey guys, I have an M17x R1, on which I have just installed Windows 10. Everything is pretty much running at the moment, except bluetooth. I can't add my Logitech bluetooth keyboard (which doesn't require a bluetooth usb receiver), neither do any of my mobiles show up in the add devices window (which I tried just to confirm whether it can see visible bluetooth devices).

    Any ideas on how I can fix this? I know I can try to install the original Alienware M17x Bluetooth driver, but so far I haven't had to install a single driver, everything, including the touch panel buttons and Fn Keys are working as they should.

    I can't understand why after making every single component including my 4870CF etc work, it didn't even detect the bluetooth module in Device manager.

    I hope someone can help.
