I can use the wireless card in my desktop as a sort of booster for my wireless signal?

Probably not with windows.

Booster as in repeater? because depending on the type of card yes you can as long as you set it to be a base station all traffic would forward to that and then onto your destination. Or as in actual reapter mode which some support which acts the same way as a base station. However would be better suited some where in between where you are and the access point/router/gateway is located.

I know that some drivers contain utilities that allow you to do certain things like that, and more. What is your wireless card?

Repositioning your aireal on your wirelss router/switch to a more downward angle may help with the signal reception, if that is how your system is setup.

Um. How will that help. Aren't antennae omni-directional?

Yea, but if the broad end is horizontal, then anything on that side is goingt o have a much stronger signal than usual.
