Dell Inspiron 17 3737 Wireless & Bluetooth drivers win8.1 x64

Thank you very much wireless works like a charm now! Very helpful site ;) !

All I have to do is find a way to find correct driver for AMD Radeon HD 8870M for windows 7 64bit. For some strange reason whatever I have tried till now is now working. And DELL doesn't provide a driver for this model for windows 7.

I posted in your other thread but will also paste the reply here.

I have the same problem Joško. Imam isti problem Joško.

Have you solved the problem yet? Jel još uvijek sranje?

Hello

Actually I have win 8.1 pro but still can not make my bluetooth working and that is frustrating. 

Drivers I tried are:

DW1705_W8_X02_A00_Setup-DK2MK_ZPE

DW1704_W8.14_X01_A00_Setup-6MRV9_ZPE

they made wi fi working, but I could use some help to manage bluetooth working ?

Another problem i have is with photoshop cs6 where i can not use liquify tool because only black screen loads insted of picture ?

thanks

Replied once to this issue on Win 7 x64, seems it was a different thread, if I were you for bluetooth would give it a shot if bellow solution works.

For Photoshop issue, would suggest you check in your Device Manager if the graphics card is recognized correctly or it is still seen as a generic one. There were a few threads n the graphics card on this web site and other web sites, think all E3737 run based on Intel graphics chipsets.

My old posting:

Just managed to solve it this morning. Installed Bluetooth and wireless on Win7 x64 SP1.

Am putting bellow the link that helped me out, just that Google finds it better. It is in Romanian, will tell you its essence, worse case you goggle translate it.

It is good that you have managed to install the software that makes the Dell Keyboard shortcuts work.

Right click on My computer, go to Device Manager.

Inside Device Manager go to Network Controller. Right click ->Properties, go to details, and from Details select from drop down menu the Hardware ID's.

Knowing your hardware ID, go to this web site and download the appropriate software.

The web site says that there are some prerequisites

Windows 7 → Service Pack 1* → KB2775511** → Dell System Software → Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility***

SP1 was installed, found easily everything except Windows update KB2775511 - did not manage to grab hold of it from anywhere, neither check if it was installed, but gave it a try without it or without knowing for sure that it was installed. But gave it a try.

Selected the closest hardware ID that I could think of, as there was not really a 100% match. It stated working even before installation of the software was finished.

My laptop's service tag is , am putting it also inside the answer to help others. 

Let me know if you managed to solve it.

Cheers,

Dear ITUNES,

  as far as I recall, all corresponding posts in forums that I have seeked an answer to the same question propose installing windows 8.0 AND NOT 8.1... I did so myself and have no problems in my win OS...

...I believe I'll soon delete everything and set up dual boot with Windows 8.1 and Linux Mint - hopefully it will go easier then the Windows 8 and Ubuntu combination - she's not quite satisfied with current setup (she needs Mint for her work)...

Since I installed win8 (not win8.1, following the instructions at many corresponding forums) along with Ubuntu 12.04.4 and I met with some trouble, I am quite interested in what you write: does Mint run smoother alongside win8? How come? Where can I acquire the corrsponding infos?

I thank you, anyway!
