Compaq - Express WiFi card vs PCMCIA
Our nephew's girlfriend had a problem with her internal WiFi card on her Compaq V6000 laptop. We all went to Best Buy and bought a Linksys PCMCIA card. The store didn't have any internal mini-pci type cards, guess the install would be too hard for mainstream buyers.
After she got home, she discovered that her Compaq V6000 has the "Express" slot vs the "PCMCIA" slot. She went back and bought a USB WiFi just to get running.
SO - are there any WiFi cards made in the Express slot format ? I haven't really seen any....
The Compaq V6000 has a known problem with internal cards. Maybe I'll just have to get a mini-pci card and install it for them...
