Hi prateek_punj, Inspiron N5010 is offered with Windows Vista/7 operating system and accordingly the drivers are updated on our support website. I am afraid the Windows 8 drivers are currently not available for this model.   You may try installing the Bluetooth drivers in compatibility mode. Follow below steps to install the file in Windows 8 Compatibility mode: Download and save the Bluetooth file on the desktop. For any clarifications feel free to contact me.
