As long as the drivers do not have any conflicts and it's supported theoretically it should work fine. It's just in my experience, at this price point it's just as cheap to use pci-e with a newer card at the same price (less power draw, less chance of driver conflict etc). I'm surprised you cannot get it to work. I say try and see your pci (non "e") route and let us know how it goes. You won't likely damage anything; worst case is it won't work and you try the more common current route that I'm recommending and exchange for the single card solution. Hope this helps get you going!
