Searching for a new adapter is simple because the only thing you have to know is what OS you are running on your desktop. A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. It will be easier to buy a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your desktop may have. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to send and receive signals to and from your wireless router or modem.
