Same here.I have original Intel main board with no option for
changing IRQ-s for PCI slots only ISA (couse PCI suposed to be
auto-config or PLUG-&-PRAY technology)

This PVR system is advertised as VOODOO VIDEO and this way of geting

If you use extender how will you than screw on your board ???
(it doesn`t fit anymore ???)
