Default HD3 PCI in "PC windows"?

I have Mac OSX 10.411 g5, pro tools hd 7.32, HD3 cards, digidesign 192 and a c24. Theres a few things I dont like with mac, can I put my hd3 cards in a pc, upgrade to PT HD 9 insted? Do I have to go thru a reseller to by an upgrade and/or is it possible to upgrade to an old PT like 9 or I must buy hd 10 or 11?

Regards

Yes if you can find a Windows machine with PCI/PCIX slots and not PCIe slots. You may need to build your own

I run a PCI rig. I brought the magma P7R4R chassis which works flawlessly. The best thing about this is you only need 1 PCI slot. These magma chassis are cheap now and worth the cash just to stop the aggro with looking for a motherboard with adjacent PCI slots :)

Thanks a heap. I will look into what upgrade I need and what it cost, and if I can upgrade PT 7.32 for osx to PT9 for win.
