Some of the newest desktop computers do no have an ISA bus
As part of the PC99 specification for advancing the design of Windows/Intel computers, the newest desktop computers will no longer have an ISA bus. For example, the new Dell L466c Celeron computer and the Gateway GP6-400C Celeron computers have no ISA bus. If you are using an ISA board such as the Labmaster or Digidata 1200 they will not even fit into these computers. See Dell's webpage https://www.dell.com/r&d/wp/winter98/isa.htm for an example of how computer manufacturers are dealing with dropping the ISA.
The only board I presently support that will (at least theoretically) work in one of there ISA bus-less computers is the Pico ADC-42 board, but it has not been tested.
Axon Instruments has stopped supplying the Digidata 1200
Axon Instruments has recently upgraded its data acquisition board from the ISA bus based Digidata 1200 to the PCI bus / SCSI based Digidata 1320, and is no longer supplying the Digidata 1200 (see www.axon.com/_DD1200discontinued.htm). Part of the reason they did this was that the newest computers no longer have an ISA bus (only a PCI bus, as stipulated in the PC99 specification), and so the Digidata 1200’s cannot be used in the newest computers. Although most board manufactures continue to sell their older boards, Axon does not.
Right now the only board that you can buy that works with the ‘LTP’ program is the Pico ADC-42 board.
In the future, I will solve this problem by getting a PCI AD board to work in the ‘LTP’ program, or at least get the inexpensive QUATECH 801 ISA bus board up and running.
