A friend asked me to take a look at her laptop (HP Pavilion dv6000) because she said that she couldn't connect to her wireless router.
The wireless minicard doesn't show up in the Device Manager. I tried re-installing the wireless NIC driver but that didn't help because there's nothing for it to see.
I took the cover off and re-seated the minicard and nothing changed, so I think it may have failed.
My question is, to replace what's in there do I have to get the exact part or are these things universal? I see there are a few on Newegg and I ASSume that I can replace it with anything, but figured I'd ask before I get myself in a jam.
Thanks in advance. Recommendations welcomed.
