Do you know what a whitelist is? In case you do not, as an opposite to a blacklist which defines a set of rejected/denied items, a whitelist defines a restricted list of authorized/supported hardware. On a computer, it's invisibly embedded in BIOS and, in the case of wireless cards, it's a set/list of models that will be supported, anything else being unsupported. If you install an unsupported wireless card, you computer won't pass POST and won't boot.

 

If you have a wireless card flying around, try it and see if it's accepted. If you do not have anything look for your HP model's spare  parts list/catalog on HP's web site.

 

The only alternative to whitelists are patched/hacked BIOS in which they've been removed.
