well for hardware.
Does any one have a graphics card, with a PCIE connector and SVGA D-connector on the output, going spare that Vickie could have? If so could they bring it to the ALUG meet tomorrow.
I've taken one out of my (spit)windows PC to get hers going and would like to avoid having to part with cash for a new one.
What's the difference between a PCI and a PCIE? The latter's not the successor to the AGP, is it? ('Cos I have a PCI)
No they're very different beasts. PCI was a wide parallel (32 bit I think) interface, PCIE is serial and comes in flavours of x1 x2 x4 x8 x16 (very basic description)
