Hi all
I have just aquired an IBM ThinkCentre 8086 ITX base unit.
Yep it's pretty old but it's busting out a 2.8Ghz P4 and 2Gb of PC3200 RAM so good enough for an internet machine for the front room telly.
I have tested it and all is well apart from videos i.e. Youtube etc. I'm 99% sure this is down the the onboard graphics not keeping up.
I 'think' the PCI slot is standard PCI - not PCI-E...and i'm pretty sure it needs a low profile/half height card due to the *** box size of this thing.
My question is - can anyone confirm what I have stated above i.e. PCI only, Low profile and/or half height?
Also - does anyone know where I can find an affordable PCI Video card at half height? Seems noone sells them? This has been free up to now so don't want to spend too much...
Thanks
