Hello to all of you,
I have changed the network card in my HP Pavilion g7-2370sg from a Ralink RT5390 to an Intel Dualband Wireless-N 7260.
When I boot the laptop normally, windows 10 shows that the wlan is turned off. I have tried many things to activate the wifi in windows. Unfortunately nothing worked.
However, if I remove the power cord and battery before booting the system and then plug it back in and boot up normally, everything works as it should until the next reboot.
My theory is that in the bios of the system it is checked if the correct network card is installed and if not it is deactivated. And that this check is skipped when I perform the procedure described above.
My question now would be if this theory could be correct and if it is possible to modify this bios to allow the new network card to work properly.
Thank you for your help!

I would appreciate it if someone could modify the bios, so I can use every Networkcard I want.

I'm not sure if this is necessary but, here are the data I read with BACKUP_Tools19n:

@Neihckls - Please show me an image of what you see on screen when you boot with a blocked card.

And then do the following

You're welcome! If your WiFi card is blocked by whitelist allowances, then you would not be able to boot to BIOS or windows until you remove the card, it will pause boot and put a warning on screen and you can't go past that until the card is removed.
So your card is not being blocked by whitelist, it's either incompatible for some reason, or may be partially damaged etc (based on what you describe in the other thread). Or some possible Win10 driver issue, not sure, but it's not a BIOS whitelist issue.

No need to try my method to backup BIOS, you cannot modify this BIOS without programmer in hand and backup made (and even then, if it's internally RSA Signed as suspected then it will brick no matter what)
See my edit above about this, if you missed it.

@Neihckls - Merging these threads, no need for two request for same system/BIOS etc

I don't think it's the drivers. If the system had no power before the card works fine. I have noticed that when I boot the system normally it takes much longer than when the system had no power before. Could it be that the POST might be skipped? Is it possible that in the POST the network card is influenced in any way?
The laptop has a system diagnostics (HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI Version 5.3.2.0). When i select component tests and then wireless module test it shows that no module is installed. So there is something wrong with the card even before I boot up the os.
