My firewire port kicked the bucket,so i bought a four port pci card, i was told it would fit my pci slot, I dont no which slot it inserts to, try'd the two white ones , but it didint fit. Is the card the wrong size? i tryd searching the net for a picture guide of the internals of my pc, but with no luck, hope you can help me. my pc is an acer aspire m3201.
I checked out your computer on cnet.com, they say your computer uses pci express not regular pci. you may have the wrong card.

Hi, it's a four port pci card(ieee 1394a)
Sorry, if it's any help, revolutionary speed is printed on the box.
Ok, thanks for your help, just hope the express has a four pin port. cheers anyway.
is it pci, or pci express? they sound the same but are not, pci express is smaller than regular pci, and the two are not interchangable. you may want to take it back where yopu bought it and see if they can exchange it for something different
