Pity this is not an old laptop... I7 processor sadly a bad wifi card,
gave all kinds of problems on Windows to be honest!

No point on applying the patch then if it will stop working anyway!
I think I might be able to substitute the card with one from another
asus, unless BIOS doesn't allow me too!

thanks for clarifying!
