Ive never tried using the Bluetooth in Windows with my Apple Bluetooth/WIFI combo card as i don't use Windows myself but you could try downloading the Drivers from Windows update.

win isn't offering any apple broadcom driver that matches out of the online update service

tried 10 drivers until u found a working / correct one ... no never available

maybe the magic mouse has newer drivers, couldn't find newer inside bootcamp files

Drivers for both WIFI/Bluetooth are provided by Bootcamp Drivers. I tested in windows 7 awhile ago but not in windows 8+.

The card you have is the newer type. I have the older type with 4 Antennas. But you should be able to use those Antennas i recommend for Bluetooth. Then just use Ethernet but thats up to you of course.

Ethernet is not an option for me because of the location of my router. That's why I bought this card primarily. Bluetooth would be a bonus to get working. Thanks for the tips.

I will try a few things to get bluetooth working with wifi activated and I will report back if I have success.

wow i installed the antennas and ...
bt works like a charm under win10

seems that the metal case really blocked the signal
also wifi is now 890mb/s before 170mb/s and full signal
 
cars is working on internal usb header connected

patched dsdt was the issue with usb port alignment
 
I have the same card with 3 antennas.

For what is the internal USB connector ? (Power or Data ?)

On the German amazon site sombody said he can use the Magic Keyboard in Bios/Clover .
Can sombody from you confirm that ?

So i have put in the card . Keyboard working only in Clover not Bios.

When i try to connect to 5GHz Wifis it doesn't work . In Win10 and macOS the same problem.

Unlock with Apple Watch doesnt work and Handoff not.

Airdrop working fine

Well, it's quiet embarrassing really.
I moved the card slot by slot and rebooted. and suddenly it worked. Bluetooth and WiFi, whereas before WiFi was a no go.
Reminds me of the bad old days with PC's where the Network card couldn't be in a particular slot because the IRQ would go batshi7 cray cray. Give it a go, what have you got to lose?
