    Hello,

    I recently purchased an A0751h and I noticed that in the expansion bay, there is an entire set of PCI-E contacts without a connector.

    If the connector is available would it be supported and recognized by XP? Or are they just pins for another model?

    I would like to have a broadcom HD accelerator along with the wifi.

    -Thanks,
    OrenG

    Ah, I see why this isn't getting results. The US version does not have a second PCI connector. That's why I'm posting.

    The second connector was used for the 3g modem.... some models have it, some dont! I guess if we could find the connector (eeepc users did a similar thing) and got it soldered on then it might work. The graphics accelerator would help a lot as that GMA500 is so poorly supported, only W7 seems to allow any kind of decent playback so far!
