I like the win8 but half of my stuff doesn't work. i'm on a HP pavilion g7. my Bluetooth is a Broadcom 20702 4.0

I use it to transfer files so it's very important to me that I find a solution to my dilemma.

any help would be greatly appreciated

Do you get any error message? Can you say more details?

Are you using Win 8 CP or the latest release, Win 8 RP? Win 8 RP has fixed many of the problems associated with Win 8 CP.
