ASUS P8P67 Pro - Onboard Bluetooth Adapter - Windows 8.1 x64 Driver Fix

Just Installed Windows 8.1 - 64 bit edition on my ASUS P8P67-Pro system, most drivers went on without trouble with exception to the on-board Bluetooth adapter.

The standard ASUS P8P67 series drivers will not work, however the driver from the ASUS  P9X79 series does!

For it to work on Windows 8.1 however, you are required to run it in "Windows 8" compatibility mode.

So without all the bullshit heres the driver link and brief instructions for those who need them:

Download this driver from the ASUS website:


Here's how to get it working, follow these steps:

1. Extract the Zip file.
2. In the extracted folders locate "AsusSetup.exe"
3. Right click and select Properties
4. Under "Compatibility" Tab check the box marked:
   "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
5. Select "Windows 8" from the dropdown menu.
6. Click "Apply" then "OK"
7. Now Double click "AsusSetup.exe" and follow instructions...


All done.
