I purchased a Matrox APVe graphics card, and when I tried to install it, I noticed there isn't a PCI Express slot, available in my system.
My motherboard is the ASUS p4p800 Deluxe. It has an AGP graphics slot. The system was built with a Matrox Millenium G550 card in it (AGP slot). It also has 5 or 6 other PCI card slots. My audio effect plug-in cards are in 2 of them.
The new Matrox APVe card will not fit into any of these slots. Can one of the slots be made to accomodate a PCI Express slot? The card calls for PCI Express x 16.

i don't think of there is an adapter for this. They make a PCMCIA to PCI adapter, yet you are able to wish the different of this. you may be more suitable positive off only procuring an exterior Sound Blaster sound card.
