This is a strange problem, but I'm hoping someone can help. I recently updated to Windows 10, from Windows 7. Everything works well, except I'm running into a very strange issue with the wireless Xbox 360 controller, the receiver, and my Bluetooth adapter.
First, my setup worked flawlessly on Windows 7, the only change has been windows 10.
Here's the issue. After installing the necessary drivers for the 360 wireless receiver (from the CD & updating through device manager) and plugging it in causes my Bluetooth adapter to become unresponsive. I get an error message saying a device is no longer recognized (listed as unknown USB device) and then Bluetooth status bar icon & driver in device manager dissappear. As you might guess, I lose connection to all my Bluetooth devices immediately as well.
Whats more weird, is that even though the drivers for the Xbox 360 wireless receiver is now listed in device manager, I am unable to connect a wireless 360 controller. The indicator light on the controller continues to blink (each of the 4 quadrant lights are lit).
By disabling the wireless 360 receiver driver and rebooting, Bluetooth works normally.
