Hi Rüdiger,

As I understand it, EISA was provided on the 715s by an adapter card that
sat in the GSC slot. Seems reasonable as both are controlled by WAX. So if
you have a GSC card in the slot you presumably don't have the adapter.

In theory you can use ISA cards in EISA slots, but cars needing DMA will
not work.
