Lenovo ThinkCentre 8424 Wifi
It will be easier to buy a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your desktop may have. Most USB wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the current operating system on your desktop. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your home router.
