- folks,
-
- i have a gateway 386/33dx machine with an ESDI controller. I called
- gateway and asked them if I could upgrade to their 486/33dx local
- bus mother board and still keep my ESDI controller/drive.
- The two sales people I talked to gave me conflicting answers.
-
- can some one throw light on this bus compatibility issue, when
- upgrading?
-
- thanks
- rao
-
- P.S: I have an ISA bus.
