>For some month ago I`ve changed the motherboard. I build in a new (secondhand) 604e tanzania motherboard from a other starmax 4000/160 Desktop with 3 PCI slots, because my old board never startup.
>I changed the motherboard and I never had problems. >But the new motherboard has only three pci-slots, I need 5 pci-slots in further time. Who know whether I can build in and use a 5pci slot riser without problems? >A lot of thanks for your answer, >martin.grellmann. >:-) I haven't tried this but I believe that the motherboards were the same and the riser card depended on which case you got. Desktop cases got 3 pci slots and minitowers got 5. You said that both motherboards were out of 4000 systems so I think you should be able to put the 5 slot riser into your new motherboard. Do the motherboards you have look the same? Is the connecter on the riser the same?
