Dell XPS L502X - Do I have Bluetooth functionality or not?

Hi all. I recently did an OS reinstall so I'm in the process of installing drivers for my system. I followed the driver step guide on the Dell website. Now, I'm not entirely certain, but I'm pretty sure I had Bluetooth functionality before I did system reinstall but after installing all the drivers for my system, I load up the Intel Bluetooth Service View executable and I get an error "Error initializing local Bluetooth device. Please make sure Bluetooth is enabled." but the problem is, I don't know how to enable it if its there. I have installed the Intel PROSet/Wireless Tools pack and then progressed to install the Intel Bluetooth driver on the ResourceCD but I can't seem to find a way to actually use Bluetooth on my laptop so would anyone know how to solve this?

I ran the System Info batch file to create system info so you can find it below, as well as a screenshot of the device manager with the network adapter tree open:
