M11X R1 Bluetooth Win 8

I loaded Windows 8 on my M11X R1 and everything works great, except I cannot locate a driver for the Bluetooth adapter. Any suggestions?

rolla020980,

The M11x-R1/R2 are not on the Windows supported list. We do not have a Windows 8 driver for the DW365 Bluetooth Module. You can try to load the Windows 7 64bit DW365 Bluetooth Module driver (http://dell.to/TeRUfN) in Windows 8.

Windows 7 driver will not install. Bluetooth module is disabled. I think Dell should develop one that works my laptop is only 2 years old.

Chris, Your suggestion does not work, please fix this issue for the 64bit DW365 Bluetooth Module driver

Chris Dell should not abandon a laptop that's only 2 years old. I have not seen any Windows 8 drivers for the M11X at all. If Dell does not develop a driver I will not purchase anymore laptops from them.

Al 123, TWK-01,

My advice is to post your request on Dell IdeaStorm. http://bit.ly/y6VM

I cannot believe that Dell did not use this Bluetooth module in any newer systems. It does not seem to be something that should be specific to this model. Was there something else that might have the driver?
