Off hand...I'd be pretty sure that it's compatible.
Can you please specify which model WiFi card..as this tends to be helpful?

*shrug*
given that it is a 802.11g card it's gonna be CardBus (PCMCIA) -> check in Device Manager (Start -> Run -> devmgmt.msc ) -> Expand(click on +) PCMCIA Adapters :: and check here that there is "CardBus" specified..

and check that the card's driver is compatible with your install Operating System.
