After taking out a wireless card from my moms desktop, I put it in one of the pci slots
of my desktop and when I turn it on, wireless doesnt work and I cant find it in device manager. Is there something I did wrong?

I have windows 7 x86

I have also installed wefi and it says that the wireless card is disabled but when I put in the card to the other desktop, wireless works fine.


[Solved]

Do you have the drivers for the card?
How about the PCI port or whatever?

So if I install the drivers for the card it will work?
Its in my first pci slot.

Edit: I think its a broadcom

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

If your taking about the computer yes, oh and when I turn on my computer, the light on the wireless
card doesnt light up.

EDIT: Just found it was a broadcom 801.11g wireless adapter. So is a wireless card and a wireless adapter the same thing?

Im such a noob.

you do have the antenna for It? Is the card on the device manager's list?

Everyone I got it fixed. For some reason I had to uninstall the drivers from moms computer. It works fine now.
