  Ill try to remember to pull the cover tomorrow (It's the middle of the 
night and i'm at home, and the 4 DVB card server is at work) and see 
what's in the 64bit slots. I do know that when I plugged a TwinHan DVB-S 
card into a 64bit slot the machine wouldn't even POST. Card fitted OK - 
I think the 5v cards have the keyway in a different spot, so if it was a 
voltage miss-match the card shouldn't have even fitted, but it obviously 
didn't agree with it. So I rearranged the cards. A connexant based card 
of some sort in that slot now.
