View Full Version : I want to marry Dell and Gina

How do I do this?

I have a Dell Laptop loaded with Adobe Audition software.
I also have Echo Gina 8 channel hardware, which uses a
PCI card for computer interface.

The Gina used to work with a desktop machine and sounded great.

But now, since the Dell laptop has no PCI slot - only USB,
I don't think I can use Gina anymore.

So - is there any sort of adapter to interface a PCI card with a USB
port so Dell and Gina can have a happy marriage?

Thanks.
Marc

Are you absolutely certain that there's no way to get at the laptop's
internal bus for a PCI device? No internal connectors that can be
brought out?

(Don't know, just askin'.)
