[QUOTE="Animeniac, post: 1186211, member: 192369"] Ok, so I was replacing my front glass on a mid-2009 13" MacBook Pro. After I got it all back together I turned it on and almost immediately smelled an electrical burning. Upon checking it out I found that I accidentally plugged the airport card connector in backwards. I fixed my mistake, yet it says that there's no airport card installed. In System Profiler it shows the software versions but no info on hardware. I believe the webcam is on the same port and it still works. So, basically, just trying to find out if I just fried my motherboard or if it's more likely to be just the airport card(don't want to waste the money just to find out I fried the mobo). Any help would be greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
