>I think you are going to need more PCI slots. The system I just purchased has
5 PCI slots, and with the PVR and daughter card, I have no more to use. The PVR
itself uses one, while the daughter card (attached to the PVR) covers another
completely. It is also so close to the third, though not actually covering it,
I would fear trying to use it due to the pressure it would put on the card.<
Do you have PCI video or SCSI? Something is wrong when you have a 5 PCI slot
mobo and 3 are taken by the PVR/combo when the PVR is the only board that plugs
into a PCI slot. Wasn't there a way to have the PVR/combo overlap ISA slots
instead?
I'm looking at a 4 PCI slot Triton board that will allow me to use all four
slots if the PVR can be installed in the slot closest to the ISA slots. I would
like to get a dual-pentium mobo, but I can't find the right one.
