I spoke to Arianna on the phone yesterday and we covered all of the possibilities plus some others and it is still a no go. The guy she got the system from is going to send her an external wireless adapter which a lady of her skill set should have no problem at all installing. The only suggestion I make for you Arianna is to wait until you have some eyes because some cards go in first and then the drivers get installed and other cards do it the other way around.
