Hello everyone,

out of curiosity, in my laptop (as per another thread in this forum) there is installed the Rivet Killer WiFi/Bluetooth card 1550 model.

After my Windows 7 successful installation in the past, I use the adapter USB WiFi/ Bluetooth to compensate this hardware incompatibility issue, because no driver Win 7 for this hardware.

My question is, can you help me (because I cannot find) to find the latest or greatest WiFi/Bluetooth card compatible with my Laptop MSI Titan GT75 and Windows 7?!

The model that I was looking for should match at least the same specs or better of the existing model Rivet Killer WiFi AC /bluetooth 1550 that I already have in my laptop.

Thanks in advanced to whom will help me on this.

Hey, yes, I saw this model and seems the Intel 8xxx series it's the one that should work.... Please let me know when you will install it.

I tried to looking for the equal specs as the Killer Wireless/Bluetooth specs but seems I cannot find...

Please, be attention about the antenna connectors which connector diameter it's, if:

[FONT=&quot]IPEX MHF4 1.2mm

Or

MHF3 1.5mm

Otherwise, you have to check for an adapter to connect the MSI antenna cable connector to the Wifi/Bluetooth Connector....[/FONT]

Perfect, please, keep me update about ;)

WORKED!
im super happy because finaly the whole project completed.

in details,first thing...if anyone planing to replace this card without remove the heatsink (like me because just before 2 weeks repasted) need a good experience.
the antenna connectors are 100% same so,i carefully remove the tape to reuse it on the another card.i had a very little space to connect the antenna because its another fabric tape in about 3cm and i didnt want to remove.

on the first boot the card recognized from the win7 and automaticly the driver installed because i was alredy injected on the iso.
works 100% perfectly with zero disconnections both wifi/bt
the setup journey its over. bye bye win10 spyware.

Ok, today I saw the posts from @vagenrider with nice pictures before comeback at home and finally I can reply now, but unfortunately @vagenrider delete all the posts related of it.

I feel sorry for that, because also i helped this person and he made just this without reason.

For anyone that needs to know, the intel 8265NGW it works with the Model MSI gt75 and all the related model of these MSI specs with Windows 7.
So, unfortunately the Killer wifi 1550 need to be replaced to let the laptop with Windows 7 to work with Wifi/ Bluetooth, because no drivers Windows 7 for the Killer Wifi 1550.

Thanks to all, and this forum to helped me ;)
