Hiya,
this kind of a strange problem, so i'll try to describe it as easily as possible.

I have a motherboard (PcNet HT2001 9932) the does not have any PCI or ISA slots on it. Instead, i have a kind of ribbon cable that leads off to a modem that is really very small. This is the only equivilant to PCI that the board has. Now, my problem is that I want to use a Keycorp K57 with this board and the monitor requires a controller card that is, you guessed it, either PCI or ISA. So, can anyone think of a way that I might be able to somehow rig up a PCI slot to the motherboard, externally through USB perhaps, or remove the monitor of its need for this specialised controller card.

Cheers for your help,
iak.

i think you can forget about using a pci card in that thing. i dont know any thing about the monitor you want to use.

my computer is so fast, it completes an endless loop in less than 4 seconds!
