Changing Wireless card for a GE60

Hi guys, New here and i need your help I have an MSI GE60 laptop and im a big fan of it, my issue is that the Wireless card an Intel Centrino 135 is Pitiful to say the least for my needs (i work with 5ghz alot) so i need to upgrade the card my friend recommended an Intel Centrino 2605 it seem good and offers great speed. but i soon as i swap the card and install the drivers im hit by some sort of software lock which don't let me use it (apparently Intel don;t like you swapping out the cards" so my question is there a way i can get this working because i would hate to lose this laptop due to a small issue like this :( a program i can run, some code i could run anything would be a great help!
Thanks in advanced !!
I can't give links to stuff :(
so ill just ask you to google the laptop Number if you need it :P
and the wifi card

MSI does not 'whitelist' anything as far as we are aware. This is included in our FAQ section.
Are you 100% certain that the card is good? Have you tried it in another laptop to ensure it works there?
Yep my friend has a HP Business laptop with the same card and he swapped it and got great speeds from it ive just done a full restore of my laptop and it still seems like its wont work ive ran out of ideas. i tried his wireless card from his Laptop and it was the same error it looks like its installed and ready to rock but theres some sort of barrier stopping it :/

  • Elementary question: need wireless card for old Dell

    Hi, all: I need to buy a wireless card for my several-years-old Dell Precision 340 desktop, so that I can network it with my MacBook Pro and printer using AirPort Express. Can buy any old USB network adapter card branded "universal"? Any recommendations? There is no built-in wireless card. Also, I understand that I will have to reconfigure the AirPort somehow to handle both PC and Mac (I spent a long time on the phone with Support getting to work in the first place, just with the Mac notebook).
    Thanks for any advice!

    Hello jonnofor. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Can buy any old USB network adapter card branded "universal"? Any recommendations? There is no built-in wireless card.
    Just about any 802.11b/g wireless device will work with the AirPort Express Base Station (AX). The AX is capable of up to WPA2 wireless encryption, so if this is important to you, you would want a device that is WPA or WPA2 capable as well. In addition to USB-style, the Precision 340 can also take PCI-cards. For example, Linksys offers both a USB & PCI types.
    Also, I understand that I will have to reconfigure the AirPort somehow to handle both PC and Mac
    There shouldn't be any required configuration changes necessary for the AX just to support both Macs and PCs. Most issues that come into play relate to using WEP for wireless encryption. You can eliminate this by using WPA or WPA2 instead.

  • Changing wireless card in g770

    I have a lenovo g770 with the Asteros AR9285 wireless card and like many other people I keep disconnecting from the internet every 30-40minutes for about 5-6 seconds and it gets really annoying to deal with. I am wanting ot change the wireless card on my laptop but I have read that Lenovo blocks a lot of wireless cards.... If there is a list of compatible alternative wireless cards for my laptop.  Thank you

    hi ThePhreako,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    The BIOS has a list of Hardware Id's that are going to be checked when you connect a hardware to the computer
    The list does not idetify via Model and Brand of the Wireless card
       These are checked through via FRU List and the card should be tagged (Sticker) with a Lenovo FRU Tag
    Same Wifi Model but different or no FRU tagged will not work with the BIOS
    This is the List that is compatibe with your system Together with their  FRU ID
    14 WLAN card, WiFi 2x2 AG (N) + WiMAX, Liteon AR9285

  • How to change wireless card locale?

    I'm unable to connect to router, which is set to channel 12 or 13. So I start googling and I found out that in the US and Canada, approved channels are 1-11 but in Europe it is 1-13.
    I check my wlan adapter on MB Air and wireless card locale is set to USA!
    Is it possible to change wireless card locale to Worldwide?
    Thanks, David

    The location on your Mac should be set by the same time zone used for the Mac's clock. (you don't say where in the world you are)
    You have to log into your router to change the country/ area channel for the router.

  • Where can I find a wireless card for my early 2009 Mac Pro (MB871LL/A, MacPro4,1)?

    Where on on earth can I purchase a wireless card for my Mac Pro?
    Apple is of no help.  Their "Geniuses" told me that it is impossible for them sell one to me because Apple will not supply wireless cards or memory for previous generation computers.  That is totally absurd.  If I want to get a wireless card for my 2 year young computer I can't? I have to buy a brand new computer with one previously installed. Ridiculous!
    Any help or suggestions would be of great value to me.

    Well I found what I think is the correct card on B&H.
    Hopefully it works....

  • Good wireless cards for older Mac Pros

    I have a Mac Pro Dual-Core Intel Xeon 2.66 GHz at work that we are trying to get online wirelessly. A couple of months ago, we bought a Hawking Hi-Gain Wireless-N USB Adaptor, which was working fine until a recent update was performed. Since then, the computer crashes almost immediately if the wireless adaptor is plugged in, but runs fine when it is taken out. I am curious if anyone else has run into a similar problem when using a wireless adaptor. I also wanted to know if anyone had a recommendation for a different, reliable wireless card for an older Mac Pro.
    Thanks in advance.

    I have almost the exact same situation.
    Same system, a d-link wua 1340 usb wireless adaptor.
    Worked fine for several weeks or so until i updated to snow leopard.
    Now frequent system crashes, grey screen and the box that tells me to use the power button to shut down.
    I tried going back to 10.5 and still the same problem.

    If you are trying to get wireless connectivity to a wireless router, like the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), then yes, you will need a 802.11g wireless card for your PC.

  • Which Wireless card for P2800?

    Hi,

  • Wireless card for Pismo 10.3?

    Hi all,
    Ethernet port died on my trusty 400Mhz Pismo, and already swapped its AirPort card into my newer TiBook, so looking for least expensive alternative to get the Pismo networked again. AirPort cards are available on eBay, but close to $100 . . . .
    I'm running 10.3 on the Pismo and have Snow ABS (b).
    Anybody with same/similar setup have a PCMCIA wireless card that is currently available/works well/they can recommend? (It would be nice if it worked seamlessly with the AirPort software too.)
    Thanks

    This was a similar post that I made some time ago. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2804141?
    I'm using the MacSense PC card. Any compatible card you get should be plug 'n play in Panther

  • FIX: Unable to update/change credit card for iCloud Storage

    You may get an email from Apple that says that they are having a problem processing your credit card for iCloud Storage. The email then goes on to give you three instructions to fix this by tapping on SETTINGS -> iCLOUD then tapping on "Account" and then following on-screen instructions.
    If (like me) you see that your card is OK but you are still getting the email and you cannot edit the payment details, this is what you do.
    Turn off Family Sharing.
    Once this is done, you will then see that the old card details are really what is trying to be used, and you can then update your payment option. This is not known about in front line support and it was only a high ranking tech support person in iTunes support who mentioned this in passing as a possible cure. Share it please as  failing to get your payment option correct can result in losing your iCloud Storage Plan and placing you back at basic free levels.

    The following may help: Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support
