How can i take my Bluetooth adapter out of my laptop and install it into my Desktop PC?

[Ferrariassassin]

Well i am very angry that my $1,000 PC i build did not come with a freakin Bluetooth connector made in it, i guess the more money you spend the crappier the hardware you get. If i would have spent $200 on a PC i bet id have a stupid Flux capacitor made in it. Well all of my mouses and keyboards are Bluetooth and i thought that i could maybe take out my Bluetooth connector in my old Laptop and instal it into my new PC? Is this possible?

Most likely not as this component is most of the time part of the motherboard which means it is soldered in. gotta buy yourself a bluetooth USB adapter or new keyboard, mice.

Do you think that if it is a Mine PCI Express Bluetooth card that i can use it on my Desktop? My motherboard has an M.2 slot which can also be used for Mini PCI Express cards.

what is your motherboard model ?

All of my PC specs are in my signature . I have bought 4 keyboards so far and they have all broken within a day and i just recently got a keyboard called Microsoft Sculpt Mobile Keyboard and it clearly says on the box "Compatible with all and every windows XP, VIsta, 7, 8, and 8.1 Computers with no additional hardware needed". Now i know i need to have a Bluetooth ready PC to use Bluetooth but i thought it came with a Bluetooth adapter considering it specifically said it is compatible with all Computers, yes it actually says such a broad sentence. I swear i may contact them for false advertisement i mean how hard is it to say HEY IT DOES NOT COME WITH A BLUETOOTH ADAPTER AND IT DOES NOT WORK ON EVERY POSSIBLE PC KNOWN TO MANKIND lol. The only reason i got it was because my Logitech G502 and Corsair Vengance K70 won't be here until November 🙁 And i want to atleast be able to get on my PC without using the on screen keyboard.

Your motherboard does not have a Mini PCI Express so it won't do. Of course you could buy mini PCI to PCI adapter, but i don't really recommend this !

May i recommend you to but a little basic keyboard from a local electronic shop. these can be found for as low as 6 $ : http://pcpartpicker.com/part/rosewill-keyboard-rk101

Well i have tried 4 of the so far and they break as soon as i open them 🙁 Maybe its just my bad luck i guess. And are you sure it doesnt have a Mini PCI Express slow? I thought M.2 was one? But thanks for you help i guess ill just connect the Bluetooth keyboard to my laptop since my laptop has a Bluetooth adapter in it and ill use the (Mouse Without Borders) program to use my keyboard on it until i get one 🙁

No, mSATA use mini PCI express card form factor, not M.2 which replace mSATA. : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M.2

I would recommend buying a usb Bluetooth dongle online for about $1
