Hi

I recently got this LION Sarasota 8050I laptop. Couldn't find any info on this laptop. HWinfo and device manager show no WIFI card, but it is inserted. Tried the card in a diffrent laptop and it detected it. Also tried swapping it for a different one, but it didn't work. Any ideas?

Solved this issue. Fix was to set LAN boot as primary in boot menu.

Would you mind taking a few clear photos of that laptop and posting it here?
