Tek_No Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Run a "Forum Search" on keyword "Minipci"... I guess you will find what you are looking for (and much more)... By the way: be sure that your laptop actually allows you to switch your Wifi Minipci card: I have a Intel Pro Wireless 2200BG inside my HP Pavilion ZT3010EA laptop. But this laptop comes originally with a Intel Pro Wireless 2100 card. After switching to the 2200BG I wasn't able to boot my laptop anymore as there is a check for a so-called HP ID on every piece of hardware the laptop is using (apparently the same thing is happening for other modern laptops of IBM, ...) Luckily I found a topic about this on how to use Linux to flash the 2200BG again with a proper HP hardware ID so that I could use the 2200BG instead of the original 2100... Just a small warning :pirate2: Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8654-wireless-minipci-card/#findComment-53760 Share on other sites More sharing options...
