No such product exists as far as I know.
Why not just buy an old PC with an ISA slot for $50?
I don't suffer from insanity, I embrace it.

Pike,
AS you would expect, there is always money to be made by doing the sort of stuff for people like yourself! So,, yes,, there are PCI to ISA converters..:o) The BIG CAVEAT IS YOU HAVE TO WRITE THE DRIVERS YOURSELF!!!

Thanks for the help folks . I took your suggestions and was able to find a company ( supermicro #p4scao) that has a 3 slot isa and 3 slot pci expansion ports running a p4 3.2 ghz ,800mhz fsb , 875 chipset ,sata . it doesn't have too much more in the way of bells and whistles but it will fit the application perfectly . next time i will do my homework a little better . I will save the d875pbz for another project . Thanks. DWM
