Paul The quick and cheap migration to a desktop PC if you have the PCMCIA GPIB card is to get a PCI to PCMCIA adapter. They are cheap and plentiful for as little at $6.50. e.g. http://www.ebay.com/itm/PCI-PCMCIA-CARD-ADAPTER-/130584195663?pt=LH_DefaultD omain_0&hash=item1e676cb24f#ht_500wt_1413 They do work well with the NI card, having used the combo with the 5370 successfully.

Cianciolo" <[email protected]> To: "'Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement'" <[email protected]> Subject: [time-nuts] Could someone please recommend GPIB card Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hello, I am looking for a PCI-GPIB card to use in a machine running windows XP. After looking on Ebay there are many different options at many different prices. I am not sure which would be compatible with my set up. Currently I have a ACER Laptop, with a NI PCMCIA GPIB card and I was able to locate the drivers to make it run with the TimeLab, the HP 5730B, I have a Dell dimension 2400 desktop, which runs other Ham radio software, like weak signal DSP, some Seismograph, Dataq data logging and others. This computer has a spare PCI slot and I would like to move the HPIB capabilities into this machine, so I only need to run 1 computer. Maybe someone is looking for a trade for the PCMCIA GPIB Card and cable? Thank you for the help Paul A.
