Hi there
I have PCI-E x1 wifi adapter & I have PCI-E x8 slot free. I got the impression that the smaller x1 card will work in
bigger slot (x4, x8, x16) I have tested that, but it doesn't work in x8
The question is why the PCI-E x1 wifi adapter doesn't works in x8 slot???
I also tested the wifi adapter in x16 slot & it works fine
Thanks
