You should be able to disable the on-board wireless in the BIOS. Reboot and install the PC card.
i have a sony laptop,,,XPpro,,,centrino1ghz,,,512 ram,,,40 ghd.
the built-in wireless is ineffective in certain areas of my home and i think i'll use a dlink pcmcia card instead.
will there be a hardware conflict? should i/can i disable the built-in, if i use the dlink?
thanks
