PCI Express x1 cards have been quite scarce since its release a couple years ago. Two Japanese companies have released new PCI Express x1 adapters for desktop PCs that convert PCI Express x1 to PCI and PCI Express x1 to ExpressCard. Digital Cowboy has released a PCI Express x1 to PCI adapter. The Digital Cowboy DCT-FUTA1 utilizes a PLX Technology PEX 8111 PCI Express to PCI bridge chip and accommodates low profile PCI cards. PLX Technology also supplies the PEX 8532 bridge for ATI Gemini graphics cards too. As this is a generic PCI Express to PCI adapter it should theoretically be able to work with any PCI card.
