Any one of the three slots to the left of the memory might work. You have a WWAN (cellular modem) and a WLAN (wireless wi-fi) and apparently an acceleration cache minicard (the one with no antennae going to it). If you remove the latter, it might break the ability of the PC to boot so leave that one alone except as a last resort and we would have to walk you though how to separate it from the hard drive to prevent a bootup problem. It would slow the laptop down seriously. I would try the WWAN first as you perhaps do not even use that and then try the WLAN. As you can see, this is a very awkward setup and I do not encourage this but I have seen it work and you have come this far so....

Ok, so if i can do this, will my ethernet cable still work on the laptop?

I'm willing to take this risk because it's actually a pretty old laptop from my dad.

Yes if you want to do online gaming you gotta use the wired ethernet. Good luck with it.
