Hi,
Thank you for your reply I have done the manuals instructions thoroughly. IE removed cover ''C'', Removed Black And White Cables, Pressed the side Clips Outwards. But no sign of the Card popping up as it says should happen

Then you may just need to give a little nudge (pry upward with a non-conductive implement).

Hi, Thank you for your Valued Assistance, I have been thinking of that, pulling it with a pointy nose plyers.

But will I still need to press the clips on the sides, as I Pull the Card

Are these side clips detachable.?

Is it possible to purchase these Clips.?

 

[COLGeek]

No, the clips are not detachable. Use one hand to spread them open and the other to nudge the device.

Hi Again,
Sorry to be a pain, the Wireless Card wont budge. And I'm quite sure its the reason I cant connect to my (Virgin WirelessConnection)?. So could you please be so kind as to tell me if a
( External USB Wireless Card), Could allow me to connect to a wireless connection bypassing the broken Internal Card.?

Thanking You Yet Again.

Yes, an external USB wireless adapter would work.

It is hard to imagine the adapter being so hard to remove. Sorry must be quite amiss for that to be the case.

Hi,
Thank you again. Do I need to get the specific external wireless card for my Dell 600.?

I believe whoever had my laptop before me, Put the card in, in a incorrect Manner.

It is completely seized in place.

thanking you Rob
