Hey S,
Not much anymore. Old sound cards, old video cards, old modems......... old stuff, poor performance, poor transfer speed, drivers are hard to find(if they even work with your O/S).......stay away from at all cost!

i dunno man, my good ol 56k ISA diamond supra express modem was faster than my dads pci winmodem....not to mention, more stable...it would never disconnect, whereas, my dads modem, on the same phoneline would disconnect.
that thing was the best modem i ever had...
just to let you know.
but oh well, my new motheboard doesnt have ISA slots, and i am glad to have only pci slots...because i dont have the isa modem anymore...dsl bay-beeeeeee!
alright, back to fixin computer...enough reminiscKIN! :smile:

ISA was 16 bit and they went to 32bit with PCI. There are also 64 bit PCI slots but don't worry about those.
