    Hi guys


    I need help installing the Intel 6300 wireless chip into the Np8170
    Their are 2 of 3 wires attached to the current wireless chip.The intel 6300 has 3 antennas so im assuming I need connect all 3 wires my problem is although I connect each wire to the appropiat number on the chip it still doesnt recognize a wireless network. What am I doing wrong? Could it be that the card isnt recognized? On the card itself it sais Intel Centrino Ultimate N 6300 model:633ANHMV

    PROBLEM SOLVED: I completely forgot to install drivers...derp derp
