Hey man!
Please elaborate some more, I'd love to hear it!
But I have a couple of questions.
What are aerial wires? Di you get e second set of those black and white connectors and just hooked up the connectors? If that is so, that might be the reason windows doesnt let you swap cards. try disconnecting the original wifi antennae, leaving the other one active. I have mine still popped in and all windows find the "dell" card and lets me connect no problem.
Also, I didnt do the pin 20 trick on the dell, or the intel card. The second slot doesnt have a killswitch, and since I disconnected the intel wifi antennae+dell is on a different slot, it automatically assumes the dell.
And about boot-it ? Is it a bootloader, didn't understand... I have SL on GUID, how would that work?
