Which exact model of Wifi card did you install? Also do you have an ethernet cable connected to the system? And have you tried to disable the WLan in the BIOS (which is for internal Wifi adapters)?

@Krpt If the Ethernet cable is connected to the system it will default to that configuration instead of Wifi.
