Hey,

So yesterday I got an ATI Radeon 5770 and because it's a dial slot graphics card I had to move my wireless n PCI-E card down from my x1 slot to a x16. The drivers are installed but it won't enable and if I move it back to the original slot it works :S

So I seriously can't be bothered to try and sort it out.

So can somebody spec me a Wireless N USB stick for around £8-12.

Cheers.

Did you uninstall then reinstall the drivers? You could try (since you still have the card) because PCI card > USB
 
My old Netgear WG311 had a similar dislike of my 5770. When the 5770 was plugged in to my mATX board the Netgear refused to work, but when using the integrated GFX it did. I was puzzled, confused even...

Then I thought "to hell with it" and bought a Wireless N USB stick. I can't say it's any worse than the PCI alternative.
 
Yeah I uninstalled the drivers and downloaded the latest and installed and it just refused to enable.

Thanks for the feedback Lunatic.
