Hello all,
Does anyone know of or have such a thing? I just got a new toy in today, but it doesn't have a riser card. It's obvious that it needs one as the card slot brackets are made to be mounted 90 degrees clockwise (while looking from the rear of the machine). The only expansion slot is an EISA slot. It also only has two card slots in the case. The machine in question is an Intel Storage Express XL with a 486SX-33 CPU, 8MB of RAM, WDC VGA graphics, and SCSI onboard. It's an LPX style computer. It has 2 operating systems on it somehow. They are Novell Netware v3.11 and MS-DOS 3.3. I'd like to be able to use a VLB controller card that I have on hand with it since, at the very least, both EISA and VLB are 32-bit iirc. An ISA/PCI riser will help me out as well or even just an ISA riser. I just want something so I can add a floppy/IDE drive controller card and a sound card. Now the only thing I can foresee in my way is getting the machine to recognize that is has a floppy drive connected to it. Any positive help is very much appreciated.
