Laptop not recognizing Mobile Broadband Express Card
I am having trouble connecting to the internet with my Sprint Mobile Broadband Express Card. Last month, tech support replaced the motherboard, as the Express Mini Card Slot was not listed in the device manager, nor in the diagnostics list of hardward. Last week, I inserted the Sprint express card, and my computer is again not seeing the card. I removed the card, went to my daughter's inspiron computer, inserting the card and her computer immediately recognized the card. Has the new motherboard failed??

how do I check the bios to see if the slot is enabled??? Thank you for your help- Without knowing the exact model of your computer, it is difficult to provide details. On most Dell computers, you get into the BIOS setup program by hitting the F2 key immediately after restarting the computer. You then need to explore the setup pages and the settings for the MiniCard slot.Steve
- Please also tell us what system your daughter has. Here is a link about ExpressCards vs. the PCMCIA card double check the type of card you have.
