Now I'm facing a hardware issue. This optiplex gx 260 desktop factor has 
a PCI riser adapter that allows to plug two pci regular cards (not low 
profile).

The issue is that it seems I can't plug three pci cards at the same time 
(I'm plugging two network cards and the PCI SATA card). If I do, the 
SATA card doesn't seem to see the disk. Any combination unplugging any 
of the three cards work. I even have tried with different network cards.

Am I missing anything?
