Change laptop NIC - Centrino N-2200 (2.4 GHz) to N-6205 (dual-band)
I removed hardware from Windows pc's for other OS's but not Win10. Win10 is current with required updates on both laptops. I do not want to take this simple change for granted. If memory serves me correctly the process I used to implement was with older Microsoft OS's was similar to:
1 - Remove hardware from OS configuration (i.e, delete from Device Magr or similar)
2 - Turn of PC
3 - Remove hardware (i.e., NIC in this example)
4 - Boot PC
5 - Hardware often recognized automatically by OS
I searched for related threads and tutorials but was unsuccessful.
