How do I check if my PC has a PCI 2.2 slot?
PCI version?

by telling us your brand and model of motherboard
(because i'm too lazy to explain to you how you can see the difference or to look it up in your systemmanagement crap)

Ok. Where do I check that?
Actually I'm just looking to buy a wireless network card for my PC. Know any good ones? I was looking at a Netgear WG311T, I don't know if it's good (I have a Netgear router though).

oh dear... just open your case & see if you can read a model nr & brand... usually is around the first PCI slot, but it depends.
while you're down there, check how the slots look.
from top to bottom: PCIe x4, x16, x1 and x16 compared to a traditional 32-bit PCI slot (bottom)
if you have one or more looking like the bottom one, it should be PCI 2.2 or higher, unless your pc was built in the stoneage.
still, better off checking the model/brand so we can check for you...
