5-volts PCI was deprecated a "long" time ago, and is not even allowed by
the PCI spec any more. Given that you're installing into a SFF chassis,
where space and heat are a concern, I'm not surprised it doesn't support 5V
PCI. It probably doesn't support ISA slots, either. :)
Dell has certainly been responsible for a lot goofy things, but this isn't
one of them.
