Hi,

Drivers compatible with Windows 8 for Inspiron N5010 are not available as of now. Once the drivers are tested and stable, they would get uploaded on the Drivers page.

Appreciate your patience.

Thanks & Regards

For systems with Dell Bluetooth 355, 360, 365, 370, 375 and 380. Use the Bluetooth 380 Driver here: http://ftp1.dell.com/folder00865420m/1/

You know, it's kind of funny, my bluetooth stopped working on my M1730 a long, long time ago. I bought a new one, uninstalled rebooted, replaced drive and still couldn't get it to work. That was so long ago I forgot all about it. Then I install W8 and now it works. Go figure...

Any word on when the drivers will be ready?  I have a studio XPS 1340 which I installed Windows 8 on.  Everything works great with the exception of the Bluetooth driver.  Of course my mouse, keyboard, and headphones are all bluetooth :) Really looking forward to the driver.

The XPS Studio 1340 should have the Dell Bluetooth 370 card. Use the Bluetooth 380 Driver here: http://ftp1.dell.com/folder00865420m/1/

Thank you so much for this suggestion. I was really at a loss trying and failing to get Bluetooth working in windows8. This driver package works brilliantly.

Thanks again

My Bluetooth was uninstalled as part of the windows 8 upgrade installation.  This might be my solution. How can I figure out which Bluetooth my laptop, a Dell Studio 15z (1569) Notebook, has?

I installed this application and I still cant see the Bluetooth device on the device Manager. Also I couldn't install Intel (R) WiMAX Link 6250. (This software package cannot be installed on your system. The setup application will exit). My computer is studio 1569, and I upgrated to win8.
