Hi basista,
Welcome to the Community.
Inspiron N4010 does not have drivers for Windows 8. If the Windows 7 driver is not installing in compatibility mode, I would suggest you to install the driver mentioned below for Dell Bluetooth 355, 360, 365, 370, 375 and 380:

You may try a Broadcom Bluetooth update by clicking the link mentioned below:
