Can you tell which slots have shared IRQs? That's always been a limit on
usable slots.

Hi John,
Does it matter with Paris ?
If all pci slots are reserved for eds cards what is wrong with pci sharing
?
This fantastic looking motherboard has onboard graphics card 1GB lan and
usb2.0 on 8 ports.
Well it costs almost as a used Magma 7 pci extender so maybe we are just
talking here...
Regards,
Dimitrios

You'll have to shut off Hyperthreading, but I believe 2.2 spec PCI has been
tried and works.

The IRQ sharing will matter because if USB, AGP, LAN, LPT, etc.. share with
a slot(s) there can be problems. Say for instance that the video is hard
coded to the same IRQ that 3 slot are on - that would be bad. I'd also be
concerned of power supply throughput, EDS cards love lots of power. The
video situation concerns me.. onboard sucks, and I see no PCI-e or AGP to
expand it, although there is some kind of PCI Ex1 slot listed?

But the mobo looks veeeddddddy interesting, Mr Bond.
