    Hi Guys,
    I have an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Mini-PCI Express Adapter chipset (In an Asus Z96J). I'd like to know what is my chipset, I mean Atheros, Symbol, etc.
    How do I get that info?
    thanks.

    you can download something like everest ultimate edition trial which lasts for 30 days, but it will give you the info you need and then you can just uninstall it.

    No, it doesn't give me the chipset name of my card.

    did you try looking in device manager and seeing what the driver is for your card- atheros keeps their's up to date and is often reflected by the driver
