Re: PCIExpress and PCI video card together
Greetings:
I had the same problem with a 3Ware RAID card not showing up at all. Also with lots of help from the folks on this list, I found out that without adding "pci=nommconf" as a boot parameter to the kernel, you won't find any of the PCI slots on the board. Worked like a charm for me.
Good Luck.
