The PCI1PEX1 PCI to PCI Express Adapter card lets you use low profile PCIe expansion cards in a server/desktop motherboard PCI slot. The adapter connects through a 32-bit PCI slot to provide a low profile PCIe x1 slot in its place; a spare, full size bracket is included for installation in larger desktop or server expansion slots that can accommodate a full-sized card.
The PCI to PCI Express Adapter features an innovative bracket design that adapts and secures the low profile PCI Express card into the converted slot, ensuring a versatile and economical solution for extending the usability of older PCI motherboards or using low profile PCIe cards that do not have PCI equivalents.

Doesn't work with Windows 10
Ordered one to put USB 3 card to 6 years old Lenovo workstation. I only had free old PCI slot, and there are no USB-3 controllers for PCI available. So I ordered this one. It simply doesn't work. PCI-Z test program, analysing PCI Bus, Stated this:
Bridge Pericom Semiconductor PI7C9X111SL PCIe-to-PCI Reversible Bridge PCI bridge This device cannot start. (Code 10) 12D8:E111 0000:0000 Need device installer. Can be rebalanced.
---- So, the card REQUIRES some sort of a driver.
We apologize for the difficulties you're experiencing with our PCI1PEX1. This adapter is native and does not require any drivers. However, you need to ensure that the drivers for your PC are fully updated for the operating system you're using or your PC may have difficulties recognizing the adapter and connected PCIe card properly. If you require any assistance we'd be happy to help look into this with you.
