i currently have above laptop it is fitted with standard cisco 802.11b wireless card but i wanted to uprate to 802.11g standard gigabyte card i find speed to slow when opening bigger files etc,when i fitted this card removed old drivers etc,it just showed error wont even post just gives error & beep,fitted old card fine no probs,IBM seems to detect this new card as non compatible so wont boot,is there a patch or similar,im not daft round a computer but i am not no expert more used to full size workstations.it also as the software lenovo package to keep all the drivers upto date installed.oh im using XP PRO.

A quick google points me to this site:

Unfortunatley knowing IBM, restricting the make/model of Wireless cards you can fit sounds very much like them.
