OK heres the sitch. I built a computer a few years ago but I've forgotten most of what the specs are for the hardware that is inside it. So if you ask I don't remember. So I want to install a Wireless networking card on my tower now. My question is do I have to remove my old networking card and replace it with the wireless? And are most PCI cards going to be the same as far as the interface slots go? Should I remove my old card and compare it to one I am going to buy so I don't get the wrong size interface on the card? Any help out there??
Answers:
It really depends on what Wireless NIC you are going to buy. They are pretty much all the same as far as PCI cards go. How you install it depends on what brand you buy. For example, if you are buying a Netgear WG311 Wireless NIC, then you need to remove the old NIC and then install the software for the Netgear BEFORE installing the NIC.
anywireless card u buy will fit once it is PCI and u wont have to reove anything, just open your case and install the new one. for less trouble u should think of getting a USB wireles adapter, that way all you have to do is plug it to an empty usb port.
