You may manage to insert it into the slot, but the card will not work, and both the card and the motherboard may suffer damage.

How do you install a pci local bus ultra ata 66?

Install the PCI card into a standard PCI slot, not an AGP slot which is older or a PCI express slot which is newer. The ATA/66 card will naturally fit with the correct slot. Once it is installed, turn on the computer. Depending on the operating system, it should auto-detect the hardware and potentially install the driver. Otherwise, do a simple search for the correct driver.

Why won't my Video card won't fit in its slot?

Odds are that the card you are attempting to insert is a different form factor than the slot on your motherboard. The primary video slots today are AGP and PCI-Express. Make sure that your video card is the correct type for the slot and it should slide in without much force. See below images for identification purposes.

Most common and slowest expansion bus?

As of right now, the fastest expansion bus found in a standard PC is a PCI-E or often seen as PCIe (PCI-E or PCIe stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect Express)Installing a PCIe card into your PC may be done only if the motherboards expansion slot will fit it. PCIe cards can fit into larger slots, but not smaller slots (obviously).
