Godd afternoon.
I'd like to upgrade my computer with a wi-fi card. I installed a TP-Link 150Mbps PCI Express (https://www.tp-link.com/es/home-networking/adapter/tl-wn781nd/) but the computer didn't started. It happened the same to another computer, an EliteDesk 800 G2 i5-6500 SFF.
I'd like to know what wirless card can i use in this computer.
Thank you.

Hi:
If the PCI express cards aren't working, I recommend you just use a USB dual band AC wifi adapter.
Any PCIe x1 card should have worked.
Below is the link to the quickspecs for your PC.
I use this one in several of my HP business desktops and they even work in my Dell PC.

You can probably find one of these on eBay, which is where I bought mine from.

Hello.
I thought that it colud have something to do with de BIOS setup, but I haven't found any option that solves the problem. The card works because I have used it on an older PC.
I'm using a USB adapter but the connection is less stable than using a PCI card.
I appreciate the suggestion on the card but I'm looking for a not so expensive option..
I'll keep on searching the origin of the problem.
Thank you!
