This is a last ditch effort. My firewalls are off but not helping me stay connected. I cannot replace the internal Centrino card with guaranteed compatibility.
I have a Presario X1030US with internal Wireless B Intel 2100 LAN 3B Mini PCI..
What are recommendations for a good, solid, PCMCIA card for the slot to work with WinXP home and this setup???>
Thanks in advance.

Talked with HP tech and they told me if the computer wasn't built with
