Sony Vaio & Bluetooth Woes

Hi I hope someone can help me here.

I recently bought the Intel AC 7260 Adaptor to upgrade my original 2.4ghz adaptor to a dual Band AC 7260 my laptop is a Sony Vaio icore 7 VPCF22M0E after upgrade I would also getting the Bluetooth 4 to replace my existing Bluetooth 2 (I Think!) also built into my old Qualcomm Atheros network card.

I disassembled my laptop and installed the new card also taking anti-static precautions and restarted my laptop my laptop found the card and installed the latest drivers I had downloaded from Intel Site.

I had a few teething problems with Sony Vaio Easy connect software so I uninstalled it after a bit of research and the 5gh and 2.4ghz worked perfectly.

 

Now the problem starts I tried to install the latest Bluetooth drivers which went on perfectly in a timely manner it completed and I restarted my laptop as advised, after restart all worked fine but no Bluetooth at all I mean there is nothing in device manager telling me I have Bluetooth and obviously nothing to see or run regarding Bluetooth.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the whole system but Bluetooth never ever appears in device manager.

I talked to my supplier who implied I might have a faulty AC 7260 so I ordered another and again stripped my laptop and installed.

Same problem occurs wireless part of adapter works fine on both bands but Bluetooth is a no go nothing to see so nothing I can do, I have trawled the web looking and tried everything to cure the missing Bluetooth 4 and I cannot find anything to make the Bluetooth 4 work, any help would be appreciated.

 

PS I also installed the PROset  wireless tools package that came with the driver and they are also working great with no problems.

 

Regards

Charles
