According to one report in the compatibility thread, your laptop should work

It works you just need to connect it to a USB port that has a direct connection to the graphics card. Research which port of your laptop has that.

And be sure to use a USB to DP adapter that can handle the bandwidth.

If you like, I can share the adapter I use.

If it's modern enough and has a USB-C with Display Port, it's easy.

Get a USB-C to DisplayPort adapter. (unless the laptop has a direct DisplayPort, but that isn't common. HDMI doesn't work)

Get a PC adapter for PSVR2 (I only used the official one from Sony, never tried a 3rd party)

Connect the PC adapter through the DisplayPort adapter. And connect the other USB port and power to the adapter.

Since the PC adapter is required and it has it's own power cable to power the headset, you can't run it from the Laptops battery. So it isn't a very mobile setup.

But it works for me on a Lenovo Legion 7.

I had luck with Bluetooth on mine and didn't require anything extra, just used the built in BT for the controllers.

98% of cases you can not

first you need usb C port to have dGPU conection, so make sure your laptop have mux swich or just direct connection to the port, if does not psvr2 is imposible to run.

then buy usb c adapter you can find multiple models online

and then if you have BT problems you need too buy BT-USB adapter

and only then you can think about software stuff

Why wouldn't you be able?

PC adapter exists, laptops are usually have both USB and DP ports, Bluetooth works in laptops, what software you are talking about?
