I have a T40 that refuses to boot with the Philips A/B/G Wifi Card (FRU
91P7301) that <br>
is supposed to be the "right one". <br>
<br>
When I put this in the machine and boot it, it says "Get this Stinkin
thing outa that slot" before <br>
it will POST..... Can't even get into BIOS.<br>
<br>
T40 is a 2373-14U which seems a match per this page:<br>

<br>
Then there is this which seems less promising.<br>

<br>
Oh.. its got latest Firmwares and such via IBM Software mgt tool (under
winXP, but it should not<br>
be a boot-time issue).<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
