INSTALLING OBSOLETE 5GHZ WIFI MODULE INTO DELL PRECISION 7510
Previous owner of my main laptop installed the most modern intel WiFi chip, [AX200]
to be precise.
Unfortunately, chip does not have drivers for beloved Windows 7.
Yeah intel dropped support in 2019. So, i have to downgrade wireless card.
Found on eBay compatible [Dell WiFi 1820]
: the last one to support Windows 7 operating system.
I always loved Dell’s Precision series for super easy installation of hardware upgrades.
Procedure is pretty much the same compared to previously mentioned [Dell M4700]
.
- Take of the back cover lid
- Unscrew two small bolts
- Take out old adapter
- Insert new one and secure it
- Close cover
- Enjoy computing
