It seems like BT and WLAN are same device. BT says it`s
qualcomm atheros qca9565 bluetooth 4.0 + hs adapter
and under the lap top there is a note saying
Qualcomm Atheros QCWB335

OS is Windows 7 x64 SP 1 Enterprise
On manufacturer site there are only drivers for Win 8 - tried them, not working ;(
Thanks in advance

Glad you got it up and running. You'd think HP would let you know it works for both 7 and 8 - duh!

Please mark the thread closed.

Those are it seems only WLAN drivers, BT wont accept them, I guess I will most likely need to go and search for the QCWB335 drivers. But this really puzzles me, cause there are no drivers on Qualcomm site.
Thanks for the effort though. *bow*

Found a solution, if anyone have similar problem here is how to solve it.
Go to HP driver page for Your lap top and download drivers for Win 8 x64
start install and after it finishes (it will fail)
there will be a folder with all extracted files
(usually C:\swsetup\SP60480)
enter subfolder Win8
start Bluetooth_Suite_win8.exe
after it finishes (takes a while)
restart comp
voila, it works on win 7 x64.

Thanks all for the effort, I was almost about to give up on this problem. *cheer*

Thanks for reply, at the same time was typing how I solved it. Would love to try Your idea but I am afraid to mess it up now that it works.
Thanks again for helping me *hug*
