Dear all, sorry to be a leech. But I seem to have made a fool of myself by purchasing an i5 and Intel AC WiFi card for my work laptop, a:
Toshiba Satellite Pro C850-1FR (PSCBXE)
Both appear to be blacklisted (or rather not whitelisted) because the CPU (i5-2430M) is both within the power envelope and supported by the processor but the card is not recognised and post upgrade the laptop demonstrates the characteristic shutting down behavior.
Now my main priority is to get the CPU working, but if it is possible to support Ivy Bridge chips also that would be amazing. I would attempt the above myself but I am currently buried with work and as such I would be tremendously grateful to anyone who might assist me in this.
