Hi Bruno

 

This sounds the tray for a wireless LAN card if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks Wolfymole, I have tried a MSI wireless 11b CB11B2 cardbus in the slot be it does not fit, Maybe it is a special one for the laptop!

Very possibly Bruno

 

You'd probably have to look at the Dell site for the specs on that machine.

ExpressCard definition.

 

Please be patient until someone can elaborate more on this. It's 6AM here and I need to get some sleep.

 

I'll check back as soon as I can.
