ISA slot

Well the music cd's won't play in it, so I guess I need an ISA slot card so I can plug one board into the other. It was worth the try tho.

Are you sure you have a motherboard with an ISA slot ?
Are you buying this card because it's cheap.
How old is your motherboard ? If it has an ISA slot you need to install
Win 3 and a driver floppy should be included with the ISA card.
If your trying to build a PC for real old Win3 and Dos Games,then go ahead.
Thats about all it's good for.Their are some who do this.
If it's more up to date then it will need PCI audio card with cd drivers.
But i'm surprised the mbd lasted this long.Do you have a Manual ?

It is an old 1993 IBM. Ya, it still works. Since our basement got flooded, we haven't used it, so it sits upstairs. Maybe in a year or so, I will get back to it.
