Need help installing a wireless card

#1 Post by dacp » Tue Oct 06, 2009 1:52 am

I bought a IBM THINKPAD 93P4168 INTEL PRO 2200BG WIRELESS G CARD for my R51. Installed it and rebooted. My laptop now does not recognize the card and installs an unknown network device. Gone into install new hardware in control pannel under IBM, but it does not have my card.

sorry but where do I get that from, and can I download it from my working laptop to CD then install it on the other?
Thank you very much
