Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260.HMWG.R Revised

I've bought this mini pci express card for my Sony Vaio VPCZ13, that has wifi dual band + bluetooth. The problem is that I can't get to work the bluetooth part, I guess that's because it interferes with the usb custom bluetooth module that is present on this computer. Tried disabling it but still no way to get it working.


Intel Wireless Bluetooth driver was installed automatically by Windows 10 but has errors.


Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

alright... I put some screenshots into my thread for demonstration what it should look like in the end.

I once had issues with it too, and only managed to fix by going back one restore point, but it should be possible with some analysis too.

There could be some conflict with other device, or other issue which should show up in the last of the chain of events in the Device properties Events tab.

There are many ways to try, I would probably start by cutting off the LAN/WLAN connection, deinstalling the Intel drivers (while checking the delete drivers flag) and starting over again.

You could also download both drivers from Intel (assuming you got yours from Windows Update like me) and try with those.

 

Doesn't matter, just reverted to the original wifi card, I am not able to get it working. I don't know if there's something I'm missing or it is not fixable, but for sure I'm not able to troubleshoot it properly. Enough tinkering with this.
