Embedded Box PC 5000 IO Module PCIe expansion mapping
The PCIe slots on the expansion module on the top side of the Embedded Box PC are driven directly from the host PCIe bus. Since it is
generic PCIe expansion, there are no PCIe device-specific drivers integrated into the Windows 7 Professional for Embedded Systems OS
image. If there is specific PCIe card used on this slot, contact the vendor of that PCIe card to verify if they have Windows 7 Professional
for Embedded Systems drivers.
