    POST card for 3.3v PCI?

    The POST card sold here only works on the (rapidly vanishing) 5V PCI slots. Where can I find a card that will work on newer 3.3v PCI slots?

    PCIe seems to have the same problem?

    A machine with only 3.3V PCI slots were actually pretty rare (and redundant now in any case).
    Everyone moved to PCI-E. And this is what will need to happen to this POST card in the medium term in order to support newer machines.

    We don't have a PCI-E solution at the moment. We are aware that the existing card will slowly become redundant without PCI-E support. To date we haven't seen any high quality PCI-E POST cards.

      Darn, I was hoping you had one coming... The quality of your PCI card is the best I've seen. The motherboards we work with, while mostly using PCI-E, usually have at least one PCI, but it always seems to be 3.3V.

      thanks for the reply!

        Might have something next year sometime, but really can't be sure at this point.
