I've always been able to plug 32-bit PCI cards into 64-bit slots. In my experience the 64-bit slots are longer, but the 32-bits still click right in. Yours won't fit?<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/3/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">

I've been trying to get a frontend working well with TVOut. I bought a<br>PCI FX5200 that I've been trying to run in a box with Athlon 1400+<br>processor. (I've tried a lot of things, see previous posts about<br>horsepower)
<br><br>I have another box that I decided to try and use. I moved all of the<br>stuff it was running to another box to free it up. It's a Dual Xeon 1.8<br>ghz machine. That's got to have plenty to do this. (no HD)<br><br>
Problem is the PCI slots. It has:<br>two 32-bit 33MHz PCI slots<br>two 64-bit 66MHz PCI slots<br>two 64-bit 100MHz PCI-X slots<br><br>Is there any way I can I use the 64 bit slots with regular PCI cards?<br>Maybe some kinf of riser or something? Currently the cards do not fit. I
<br>have 3 tuners, plus the PCI FX5200. I'd be willing to trade up the video<br>card to something that would work, but all I can find are PCI-Express,<br>which to my understanding are different.<br><br>Do I have any options?
