 The use of the 32-bit form factor does not preclude 64-bit addressing as 
long as the PCI bus logic supports the DAC command, both in the system's 
relevant host bridge and the device concerned.  Is there documentation 
available for the ISP devices that would provide such information or is 
that all we have is trial and error?
