I am looking for a SCSI PCI adapter card that has 64 bit drivers. No problem, right? However, it needs to have an external connector for a 50 pin SCSI-1 cable. Not so easy now, eh?
I have a Nikon Coolscan 3 slide scanner and don't want to (i.e.: can't afford) a newer model.
I recently upgraded to Win7 64 bit and love it but the card from my XP days is an Adaptec AHA-2940- no 64 bit drivers. I have a Adaptec 39160 (not installed), which has the drivers but has a 68 pin VHDCI slot only.
My processor doesn't handle the XP emulator.
If there are no such cards available, will a 50 pin SCSI-1 to 68 pin VHDCI work (if there is such a thing)?
System:
ASUS A8N-SLI Premium
AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Venice 2.4GHz Socket 939
600W PSU
4 x 1028 OCZ Platinum SDRAM DDR400 PC3200 dual channel, unbuffered non-ECC (2-3-2-5-1T)
ATI Radeon X700Pro 256MB PCI Express x16
WD Caviar 250GB SATA2
WD Caviar 320GB SATA2
WD Caviar 500GB SATA2
