    Hey all. i installed my newly purchased Dell 1390 wifi card. install went just fine, no issues, but when i boot windows, it's not detected and the wifi hardware switch does nothing!

    when i boot OSX, no wifi card is detected either. (i'm not totally sure how mac works yet, still learning, but shouldn't it detect new hardware?)


    i don't know what to do now. i need my wifi working!


    thanks

    the stock atheros won't work with my leopard install, or so i've read. I needed the dell 1390 to use WIFI in OSX.
