Back to the original question: what about using one of those AGP2PCI/AGP2PCIE adapters?
http://www.3dfxzone.it/enboard/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=18419or PCI2PCIE?
http://www.3dfxzone.it/enboard/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=16658Sure, you start running into expensive prices for limited production run riser card PCBs and _strange_ mounting inside a case, but compatibility with faster boards increase phenomenally.
You'll never find an original AGP2PCI adapter. They were only produced for a short time in Japan and have been out of production longer they were in production. So in other words, very few were ever made and only a very small percentage of those exist outside Japan. Unless someone starts making them again, your odds of finding one are slim.
There are places that still sell PCI2PCIe adapters, though.
