I have a PICMG board (ISA+PCI) that is currently strapped to a power supply using duct tape and a protoboard with an ISA slot (giving it power). Can I plug this card in to a traditional ISA slot to get power inside another computer? I don't want them to communicate over ISA -- that would be impossible. I just want power, and a stable platform to house the PICMG card. Is this possible? Will it require certain signals are cut off so that they won't interfere with each other. (I suppose I could do this using a paint over trick, or worse cut the physical trace.) Which signals would I need to do this to? Brett
