Is there a way to make Win 7 believe it's Win 10?

I come from a generation where we didn't throw something in the garbage simply because it's old.

1) I've got an old laptop running Win 7 and it will NOT handle Win 10. Even barebones it chugs or stalls

2) I got to thinking that it would still be a great computer for my music system in my backyard and possibly for my theater room. But everything is Bluetooth.

3) So I purchased a Bluetooth 4.0 Nano USB Adapter. It works great on my Win 10 machines but no go on the old laptop

4) Under Win 7 it sees the devices and connects but zero sound. Trouble shooting says it needs drivers but there are no drivers.

Is there anyway to make this work?
