Hi, I have a (fairly) new HP Pavilion dv6 laptop, and my Bluetooth adapter was working fine up until two days ago, where it just stopped working altogether. The system still says it is working, except one thing: usually when I restart the computer or turn the wireless adapter off and on, a notification dialog box pops up saying something like "Starting Bluetooth adapter", but that stopped happening, as well.
EDIT: My Wi-Fi is still fully functional, if anybody is wondering
The Bluetooth adapter still works on Ubuntu as far as I can tell, so that is another reason why I believe this is a driver/OS problem. I have searched this forum and the HP forums as well, and have found no solution so far. Here is some technical information that I think might be useful:
Primary OS: Windows 7 Professional x64
Wireless Adapter: Broadcom 4313GN 802.11b/g/n 1x1 Wi-Fi Adapter
Other installed OS: Ubuntu Desktop 12.04.1 LTS - Virtual partition
If there is any other information that anyone needs, be sure to tell me because I haven't had a problem like this before.
Please help!
