Wifi card not supported by mobo?

[wif]

Hello!

I got one wi-fi card model WLG-1203 on PCI slot and motherboard ASUS P4V800D-X. After putting the wifi card on my mobo, and starting up the computer, it freezes before booting into Windows Xp. Also I put Ubuntu live cd and it again freezes. Putting Windows Xp setup CD the computer freezes on "Windows Xp is starting setup". When I plug-out the card it booted perfectly. I bought another wifi card (new) and still the same problem. Also the "Link" diode on the card is not "flushing".

Is it possible that my mobo does not support wifi cards?


Thanks in advance.

Regards.

If your mobo has other PCI slots try them. Also look in BIOS (usually press Delete key as it boots) for the pages allowing you to select and deselect mobo interfaces.

Disable: COM ports, possibly Game/Midi port, Parallel Printer port if using USB printer.

See if this reassigns resources and solves PCI prob.

Thank you very much.

I started changing things in the BIOS and I make all IRQs Reserved, for some reason it worked. If I disable lets say 9 of 10 IRQ it will not work. It only works for all IRQs reserved.

If you know what happened please explain.

Thank you.
