Which card?

No need to shout. And Usenet is not IRC; just repeating asking the same
thing will not give you more answers, rather the contrary. In the
(cyber)space nobody hear you shouting anyway.

Then run some PnP util to learn which it is really.

It would also give you an opportunity to find the maker (vendor-id), which
perhaps have a website, perhaps with some kind of support, download, etc.

At least something happenned; since she was proposed a pair of possibles
paths, and there were no further precisions about her real case.
