Hello.
I want install a PCI-X scsi board on my P6T Deluxe. This
motherboard has not PCI-X Slot. I now PCI-X is compliant with PCI
but instructions says: "Install lsi 20320-R in a 3.3v or 5v PCI
slot".
Can i install this board on my P6T Deluxe ? In my first try my
motherboard or power supply has broken. System after install pci-x
board doesn't power up.

I hope you unplugged your power cord to the back of the PC before
you tried to install any card or memory module or the like? If you
still had power to the system, you most likely fried something,
either the power supply or the motherboard.

Yes power cord was unplugged before install the card.

It's probably a bios conflict, not a voltage problem. Check the
boot options in your system bios, and try disabling the onboard
SAS RAID bios (just for a test). Then install the LSI card and
see if it boots.

You may need to contact Asus tech support and see if they're
aware of a conflict issue with LSI cards.

It's impossible that i check boot options because machine doesn't
power on. Or power source is broken or motherboard.

From what I've read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI-X , it
appears that PCI cards will work in PCI-X slots, but not the other way
around (it doesn't say so explicitly, but it is not mentioned as an
option).

The way the card you plugged in is keyed may have put an incorrect
voltage on one of the pins and it sounds like you may have shorted out
the card and/or the motherboard.

If the computer won't power up with the card removed, it may have
damaged a/some component/s on the motherboard.
