I'd need to dig up a product data sheet to tell you which the C160 (not C160L) supported. But if your card doesn't fit the keys in the slot, it's *not* electrically compatible. Secondly, folks with broken Dino's built-in, can *only* plug in HP-UPX supported graphics cards once firmware is upgraded to 5.x or better (on older B and C-class machines). PDC won't boot with anything else installed - but no harm in trying (unlike mismatched PCI slot keys). grant
