Btw Dave, PCMCIA is laptop/notebook architecture. A far more scaled down rendition of PCI.

I repaired my first PC in 1983 and have done hundreds of them.

I never once came across a white ISA slot.

They may be out there somewhere though !

ok ok ok I got it backwards :p

I agree with earlier advice tho - ISA really is gone past legacy at this stage and is completely obsolete.

A quick Google search for 'PCI to ISA' resulted in some adapters, no good to you Dave?

PCI is even getting old now. New boards have a couple for legacy cards but PCIe is the way forward.

I've seen PCIe slots in various colours.

Dave,
I just remembered that you and I have very similar PCs, if so you definitely have ISA slots in the PC, antiquated as they are...
