Mini pci card from a pci card?
I have read somewhere that you could remove a wireless mini pci card from a regular pci card. I thought this was a d-link DWLG-520. After getting this card I find that there is no mini pci card on it. If anyone can tell me the make and model of a PCI card that I can remove a A/B/G card from
Thank you

Just look at the pci card and under the metal shield you will see a white connector - that is the mini-pci interface connector. The card would also need to have a U.FL connector for the antenna connection.
This is one to look at for the connector, right above the gold pci fingers:

Peel off (may require brute force, or hair dryer, sometimes there's glue) the square or rectangle metal case and look for it.
