    In order to answer this question, we really need to know the make and model of the wireless card and whether or not it is a PCI card, a mini PCI card, a PC card, or a USB adapter.  Without that information we would just be making a wild guess.

    The card you have will work.  You need to install it in the Mini PCI slot which under a door on the bottom of your laptop.  See the following:
