EISA question

Am I nuts or is it possible to use 8 and 16 bit ISA cards in an EISA slot? This is my first hardware level adventure with an EISA machine and right now it has EISA controllers and open slots, that I would love to put certain ISA cards (sound for one) into but while I'm reasonably sure, I don't want to risk blowing anything up. I've been under the understanding that EISA was backward compatible with ISA. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Russ Blakeman RB Custom Services / Rt. 1 Box 62E / Harned, KY USA 40144 Phone: (502) 756-1749 Data/Fax:(502) 756-6991 Email: rhblake(a)bbtel.com or rhblake(a)bigfoot.com Website: http://members.tripod.com/~RHBLAKE/ ICQ UIN #1714857 AOL Instant Messenger "RHBLAKEMAN" * Parts/Service/Upgrades and more for MOST Computers* --------------------------------------------------------------------
