Yes that will work it uses a normal pci slot, for the software drivers and compatibility mode.
Set it to windows 7 by default or windows vista so it'll work properly.

I have the Card installed but the drivers aren't being properly installed by windows update, the disk it came with is full of drivers and Readme files, i found the one that looked right but installing it didn't seem to fix it. Can i select the driver I installed manually?
Edit: found the User manual and it directed me to the correct driver on the cd D:\VL\VL80x\setup.exe , which had at least 15 different subfolders with exe files. Restarting now. and Success! thanks for the prompt reply! I hops this thread helps some googler someday

Should be able to, but read this link here carefully and try to attempt that.
