Were your drivers installed with the phone unplugged?
-Check your data-sync cable,It should not only allow your device to charge but also data-sync.( Try with another data-sync cable)
-As you stated drivers are installed.Then when you're on bootloader,It should show HBOOT-USB. If that shows than try doing same thing again.
Or else follow simple steps below:
-Copy CWM recovery.img into fastboot files.
-Unplug your device if connected to computer.
-Manually power off your device.
-Press Volume down + Power button,It will redirect into hboot.
-Select Bootloader by clicking on power button,It will change color of HBOOT from Blue to Red.
-Next thing you'll notice that it stated as HBOOT USB.
-Put your phone on side and do same commands fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.0-ace.img
-Fastboot reboot.
Once process been done. Unplug it and boot device normally. And to check whether there's a recovery.img installed or not,Just power off your device and put on charge. In CWM it will redirect your into recovery mode while device is switched off.

3. Enable USB Debugging from Developer options & Disable Fast Boot from Power settings
4. Copy the first file you downloaded to the fastboot folder and rename the file “twrp-3.0.2-0-a5.img” as “recovery.img”
5. Now Connect your Phone to the pc through usb cable.
6. Press shift and right click together. In the popoup select “Open command window here”
7. In the command prompt type “adb devices” .
8. If it shows the list of device attached the type “adb reboot bootloader”
9. After the phone boots into bootloader, in the command window type “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”
