Wild.  You must have a different VR Pro card that what I have, as mine
worked just fine in the 'video slot'.

But then again, that doesn't make any sense.  The PCI spec defines the
physical size.  The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is a
PCI card that can't run at 66 MHz.  I know those are keyed differently
than one that is designed for a 66' slot, but as for the size...  I'm
stumped.
