Full Version: Where can I find a PCI/SCSI card for my HP 5P scanner?

I have a barely used HP 5P Scanjet, model C5110A. The problem is it originally came with an ISA/SCSI adapter card. My current system only has PCI and PCIE slots so obviously I can't connect to it. I need a low cost solution here because I can get an all-in-one printer/fax/copier for $100 or less. Also, the software it supports tops out at Windows XP. I have as I see it three options:

1. Locate an inexpense PCI/SCSI card.
2. Locate an older computer that has an available ISA slot.
3. Buy the all-in-one.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. For me the heartbreak of the whole thing is that the scanner cost me $300 originally and it was only used for a month or two. Every time I've tried searching for a SCSI card they are quite expensive ($80-$500). I'm convinced that there is a low priced card out there because the card I want to replace was only a 16 bit ISA (Symbios Model SYM20403).

Thanx

Check somewhere like NewEgg.com. If all else fails sell the old AIO on eBay and buy a new one.
