...which leads to another question:
Why do you want to do such a thing?
The answer you gave ("My PCI slots are in use and I have a couple of ISA
slots available") does not sound right. <s>
Generally speaking, ISA is slower than PCI (I cannot remember the exact
figures) and in the past, there used to exist some rather "decent"
{sound,network,graphics}-cards that could be attached to an ISA slot.
But nowadays, new PCs come with one or none ISA slots onboard.
So, I think it would be a nice idea if you left your computer as is and
not stuffing more things there.
Oh, and a possible system crash caused by some ancient piece of hardware
is slightly irritating.
Good luck.
P.S. : <s> stands for <smile>
