PCi-e multi card
#1
following on from my request here I now know that the bios is not responsible for turning the usb part of the pci-e card on, taping pin 20 just bypasses the wi-fi switch so how do I get the Bluetooth part of this card to be useable? its a Broadcom BCM94313HMGB card.


Edit;

just read this, so now I think perhaps my pci-e is v1/2 and the card being new is v2.1, so is the version of pci-e bios controlled or hardware dependent?

This is an interesting one. Can you please post the system specs for where the card is running?

the wifi part of the card works but not the Bluetooth, nothing about the Bluetooth part of the card registers on the pc anywhere its like its not even installed, this is all I can find on the card;

I take a look on Satellite A100 schematic (don't know if is simple or Pro) is made by Inventec model San Antonio board.
What ca I say,on this schematic USB pins of miniPCIE are not used.

Take note I don't know if schematic are for Satellite A100 or Satellite Pro A100.

this board is an Intel Capell Valley (napa) CRB motherboard, it is a satellite pro, do you have this schematic?

Under Toshiba folder no.
Can you provide extra info?

Manufacturer? (Compal,Quanta,Inventec ...)
Board model?

The pain with these miniPCI-E is that they combine USB and PCI-E. If your miniPCI-E slot doesn't have USB then you have to find one and connect the signal to your slot. It's either only two wires (TX/RX) or four (with +5V and GND). Sometimes manufacturers leave unused USB connectors on the board. Which you can make use of.

I've found a little adapter thing that I think might add the power to the usb part of the pci-e card, anyone confirm?

This thing doesn't add any power on anything. It's just a mechanical board - a PCB with holes for screws if you wish.
You can mod your miniPCI-E to add USB. What I can't tell is whether the TX/RX pairs are available. Any good photo of the board near the connector?
