Hey everyone! I just upgraded my PC with a Gigabyte X870E AORUS ELITE WIFI7 motherboard and a Ryzen 9 7950X3D processor. I did a clean install of Windows 10 because I'm a bit concerned about gaming performance on Windows 11. However, I've come across a frustrating issue: the Bluetooth isn't working! My settings show a "driver error" and when I checked Gigabyte's website, I found out there are no drivers available for Windows 10. I really want to stick with Windows 10; does anyone know if I can download drivers from a different source? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You could also post some screenshots to show what errors you're getting. Visuals can really help in troubleshooting!
You might want to try downloading the Windows 11 Bluetooth driver from Gigabyte's site; it often works on Windows 10 too. Give that a shot and let us know if it helps!
I tried that, but it still shows up as a generic Bluetooth adapter with a code 43 error in the device manager.
The chipset drivers provided on the Gigabyte site can sometimes be outdated. I recommend checking out the AMD site for updated drivers that might work better for your setup. Here's the link: [AMD Driver Download](https://www.amd.com/en/support/downloads/drivers.html/chipsets/am5/x870e.html).
That didn't seem to do the trick for me either; still having issues.
I tried selecting the Windows 11 driver, but it just switches back to the generic one. Here's a screenshot: [screenshot](https://preview.redd.it/uxzrs27ceywe1.png?width=629&format=png&auto=webp&s=6e3d88742ab043f7190977204e10f7ee58b32841). Any ideas?
