Hello,
I have an old HP Proliant M110 G4 server that is successfully running Windows 7 as a general desktop.
I've upgraded from the 4Mb inbuilt graphics to a 256Mb card by putting a PCI Express x 16 card in the PCI Express x 8 slot. The end of the PCI Express x 8 slot is not enclosed so the longer graphics card fits in just fine.
The only options to put a sound card in (apart from usb) are in one of the 32-bit/33-MHz 3.3V PCI bus slots or could I perhaps put a card in the second PCI Express slot which is the x 8 length but only x4?
Can anyone recommend a cheap solution that will work with windows 7?
The server is dual core with 4Gb of ram and quite snappy.
Regards,
Sue
