Hello,
According to the HP_dv7-6195us_Maint_Manual.pdf, there are a multitude of wi-fi network cards supported by my laptop (page 8). When I replaced my "Intell Centrino Wireless-N 1000" card with an "Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230" card, my BIOS displays an error "Wireless Module not supported". Does anyone know if there's a way to get around this error message?
Thanks in advance,
Rob

Where did you get HP_dv7-6195us_Maint_Manual.pdf from ? Normally HP Maintenance and Service Guide has following format
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c********.pdf
Please go to its support page and update BIOS, hope this helps.
Regards.

Hello,
I don't remember where I got the manual. I've probably had it a long time, I bought the laptop in 2011. I'm running the latest BIOS, which came out in 2011.
You can view the manual here:

Any other ideas?
Cordially,
Rob
