cyclone3d, it's Intel 865, it has not PCI-E. Only AGP3.0, PCI, ISA. PCI-to-PCI Expansion chassis is a good idea but too expensive. And I don't know how it works in Windows 98/ME, what kind of drivers (if exist), what possible issues with resources allocation. We all know that Win98 is sometimes goofy (unlike WinXP) about address space conflicts if BIOS failed to allocate devices in RAM correctly at startup. If we use any bus expansion the probability of such issues increases many times. It's not cheap to spend for this trial-trip.
