Intel BG2200

I bought Wireless mini PCI card "Intel Pro 2200 B/G" in order to install in HP nc6000. After the installation I get this message
"104-unsupported wireless device"

According the spec of nc6000 this card is supported.

Any kind of help is appreciated!!

Thanks
Bashir

Bashir --

Based on the following thread, it appears that non-certified cards are locked out:

Even though the BG2200 chipset is supported, if the card wasn't the HP/Compaq-specific version, it won't work.

I just purchased an HP W500 WLAN card (about the best price was directly through HPshopping.com) after running into this same issue myself with the Intel BG2200 Mini-PCI card.
