New here! Been lurking for a few days.
I'm trying to swap the original Realtek 8191SE Wi-Fi card with an Intel Centrino 6230 on an L555D-S7005. The laptop will boot, but I cannot enable the Wi-Fi card itself.
The Intel card has Bluetooth, while the original Realtek card does not, which is why I suspect Bluetooth works on the Intel card without being affected by any Wi-Fi whitelisting.
I'm not exactly sure what corresponds to the PCI ID so I've included the 4 lines of text that appear in the "Hardware Ids" section for the Realtek card:
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8172&SUBSYS_818110EC&REV_10
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8172&SUBSYS_818110EC
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8172&CC_028000
PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8172&CC_0280
The link to the BIOS can be found here:

The filename is: slxjv120.exe
I appreciate your help!
