Is it more complicated than just switching buses?
The 4I68 is a PC/104-PCI card, not PC/104 so you need to make sure your carrier CPU is PC/104 plus or PC/104 PCI not just PC/104. The 4I68 is supported by the HostMot2 driver so the EMC configs should be identical except for low level signal names (and the low level names are pretty well hidden by the sample HAL files) > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Peter C.
