- I just completed the Tower typeupgrade, I solved the video slot problem(ie
- , V slot tucks in next to power supply with no room for card) by makeing
- some extender cables with a couple of 34 pin idc card edge connectors,
- two chopped ppieces of veroboard that had the right pitch strips to
- fit in the vid slot and some ribbon cable, since you i couldn't get
- 36 way edge connectors I went with 34 and droped pins 1+2 from the first
- slot(from back) and 35+36 from the second , the first two are reserved
- for future(non) expansion and the second two carry raw audio, I wasn't
- planning on putting any sound cards in my video slot!
- the cables are about 10cm long, just enough to solve theproblem and
- plug my flicker fixer in. It works. hope any one doing this finds this
- usefull!
