Long shot here but Lenovo's site doesn't provide anything, and Internet search hasn't been helpful. I have a Lenovo W510 (several years obviously) that runs Win 10 just fine. The only issue is that the Microsoft Bluetooth drivers don't work all that great. In fact, I believe it is the Bluetooth that prevenst my Devices and Printers screen from working properly. Anyways, does anyone have, or can tell me how, to determine the Broadcom model number of my Bluetooth module? I looked in Device Manager and it didn't help. I'd like to see if I can find different drivers that will work better.

Hi,

One way of getting the exact driver for that device is to check it's Hardware ID.
- Open Device Manager, right click on the Bluetooth device and select Properties.
- Click on Details tad then under Property select Hardware ids from the list.
- Under Value this is what it should look like
(PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3106&SUBSYS_14051186&REV_8B)
- Use your hardware id to identify that hardware for your bluetooth.
