Windows 10: Windows 10 keeps installing generic Bluetooth module driver

HI recently noticed that my PC no longer acepts bluetooth connections. I downloaded the latest driver from the manufacturer but Windows refuses to run anything but "Bluetooth Device (RFCOMM Protocol TDI)". I believe the bluetooth module on the motherboard is a broadcom. Trying to install the drivers manually, Windows 10 gives "driver error" or "device cannot start". The motherboard itself is an ASUS X99 Deluxe U/3.1

Bluetooth in windows 10

My computer specs are as listed in the profile. I think all of you guys are correct. I don't have built-in Bluetooth in mobo.

I contacted skull candy headphones and thy have told me if I do not have built-in Bluetooth, I would need a dongle which supports at least a2dp. I do not know what the heck that means. I have a feeling I would need more than a cheap dongle.

Anyone suggest some a2dp adapters. I searched but don't know what a2dp is so couldn't make a decision
