[Shotimes] O/T ISA to PCI

[cmichaelo@optonline.net]

Paul,

What you need to get is an "ISA-to-PCI" "adapter card" OR "PCI-to-ISA" "adapter card". Go on google, and you'll get tons of hits, especially pci-to-isa.  I checked a couple of links out.  Seems that such a card is hard to find. On the other hand, a lot of people are looking for it. 

This guy here is asking almost $900 for such an animal. http://www.nextag.com/buyer/outpdir.jsp?nxtg=167c7f_101B753C32262DFA&doSearch=y&search=isa+to+pci+adapter

I wouldn't be surpriced if these adapter cards start to show up soon, at somewhat elevated prices though. Poke around some more on Google. Post a message to one of the newsgroups under google-groups.

Stupid suggestion probably, but sometimes there's a single ISA slot hiding right next to a PCI slot. I've also seen the ISA slot(s) being located completely away from the PCI slots area. Finally, some computers have a socalled ISA expansion connector on the backside of the computer (or maybe it's inside). It DOES NOT look like an ISA adapter slot. If you do have such a connector, then you need to find yourself an ISA-to-ISA adapter cable. Check your owners manual.
