So if your motherboard has only one USB riser (which is my case, with a Gigabyte A520M DS3H) you'll have to choose between bluetooth or the plugs on the case (unless you buy a 9-pin doubling hub, which exists but is not easy to find)

Without this connection, only the wifi works. The card itself works very well and is recognized by windows during installation, no need for drivers.īut an important point that I missed is that it requires a USB connection to the motherboard via a 9-pin cable (the same as the cables that connect the USB plugs on the front of a box to the motherboard) for the bluetooth to work. I am having the exact same issue (with the same card and motherboard, please let me know if you found a solution.Requires a USB connection for bluetooth to work My wifi was working and the bluetooth wasn't until I plugged that in. I doubt this is going to help you, but make sure your the card has a USB power cable connected to the motherboard. I even tried the drivers from Gigabyte's website. PS: After I uninstalled the BT items from the device manager, it didn't show up again even after reinstalling the drivers from Intel. Maybe someone has had this issue? Anyone? I'm hoping I don't have a bad network card since I did get it to work for a few weeks and it's not even unplugged every now and then since it's a PCIe card. I haven't really kept track of the software/driver updates I did prior to this BT issue so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The GC-WB867D-I has an USB 2.0 port with the card, that works when I plug an USB to it so I guess the pass-through is okay as well. I even tried to flash an older version of my BIOS (MSI z97 Gaming 5), still I get the error 43. I even tried uninstalling all the WIFI+BT drivers again. I uninstalled all the drivers from the device manager relating to BT and even WIFI. I tried to update the drivers using Intel Driver Update Utility and downloaded and installed new drivers, but still no BT. Checking its properties, I get error code 45. I checked device manager, and could only see bluetooth when I enable show hidden devices. Weeks passed, then when I needed to use BT, the icon wasn't present on the taskbar. I have the Gigabyte GC-WB867D-I rev4.2 and wifi and bluetooth both worked okay upon initial installation using drivers from Intel's website.
