Problems with Intel AX210 BT Driver

Since a few updates to my Intel Wireless BT driver for AX210, it's been causing problems: The Device Manager displays the message "Device cannot be started," and I can no longer enable BT in the Windows Control Panel. If I reinstall the driver, BT works for a few days, then the error reappears. Until a few weeks ago, everything worked perfectly on my Acer Swift 3. Is this a known issue?

Hello Trigger_1,

 

Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.

 

These errors in Device Manager for Bluetooth or Wireless (Wi-Fi) Devices can be caused by many different issues. Usually, a Code 10/43 error is a temporary error, generated when Device Manager can't start the hardware device. However, this error is considered a generic message indicating an unspecified problem.

 

Intel recommends that you test using your Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) drivers. If you still get the error after reinstalling these drivers, then try the Intel generic drivers for Bluetooth or Wireless adapters. Best to proceed with clean installation of either OEM (Acer) or Intel generic drivers. Perform a Cold reboot of the system after reinstalling the driver. 

 

Important: Download the drivers before uninstalling the driver if you are following the instructions for a clean installation process.

 

In case the issue persists, please download the Intel® System Support Utility for Windows* software so I can proceed with further checking. When the download is complete, launch SSU.exe.

 

  • Scan: Check the box Everything.
  • Click Scan.
  • Review: When finished scanning, click Next.
  • Click Save. *Attach the SSU log file as you reply.

 

I look forward to your response.

 

 

Best regards,

JeanetteC.
