Be careful with this. I'd borrow a card first to see if it will work.
My hp has a mini-pci slot, but when I put a card in it, the bios
complained of an 'unsupported' card. Seems HP only wants you to use
their card. Since their's is $100 and I picked one up for $45, I
figured that made sense. Sucks, sounds like a Microsoft solution...
