Sounds like a hardware error. Weren't you getting that same error with your old wifi card ?

[DanXbix]

not wasn't me i had 1520 card before. tried all possible drivers but This device cannot start. (Code 10)

[Michael]

Yeah. Must be a faulty card then. Do you have another laptop nearby you can test it on? And contact the eBay seller already to let him know the card is bad.

Yeah that's what I would do... I hate eBay got a Fujitsu n6010 for $700 years ago and it was in perfect condition but anything else has been a hassle. I don't like their policies and much prefer Amazon. Hope you get the card returned and refunded.

I believe this card is only compatible with Lenovo Y460 560 and IBM T410 X201 T510 laptops only!! I bought this Intel WiFi Link Ultimate-N 6300 Half PCI Card 633ANHMW | eBay for my m17x r2.

Did you try power drain? Pull AC, battery, CMOS battery and hold power button down for +-20 seconds? Remember some people needed that when upgrading their wifi card.

I bought this DELL 4W00N Card, Wireless, PUMAPEAK33 | eBay as it has the same part code from Dell for the R2. Works flawlessly.
