The fix is to replace the card with one that is compatible. See: [/size]

Unfortunatelly he may not be able to get a compatible one due to the fact that his laptop is an HP one (HP applies a BIOS-based type of DRM that locks the PC if the user installs an unauthorized wifi card. Some old pre-win8 laptops could be hacked to use any wifi card, but win8 ones use a newer uncrackable type of BIOS called UEFI) unless he is lucky enough that one of the cards in the link you provided matches one of the supported ones for the OP's laptop (is list of authorized cards is different on each model).
