pci version on bp6 ?

Post by stevoh »

anyone know what pci version is on the bp6 ?

i bought a wireless nic (belkin 54g) and belkin say quote: Please note 802.11g adapters require PCI version 2.2 or above

the wireless nic is not even detected in win xp, so im wondering if pci version is <2.2

any ideas

Documentation on this is scarce, but I'm 90% certain that the BP6 is PCI 2.1 compliant only. Some later 440BX boards used PCI 2.2, but not this one.
BP6, RU BIOS, 2*Celeron 366@550 1.9v
2*GlobalWin FEP32, 512MB PC100 CAS2
GeForce DDR, CMI8738 audio, Accton SMC2-1211TX NIC
Ubuntu Linux, Kernel 2.6.8.1-4-686-smp

it's implied in the mobo manual
which is sad by today's standards
but we know where we're at
