Wehen you go into the device manger, do you see the wireless card?

Its quite possible the cards died, and yes they usually replaceable.

Have you by any chance dropped or bumped it fairly hard?

I only ask, as the cards are snaped in, so it was polssible to have dislodged it.

It might have died on you.
