I had the same problem with my system, but since I can get DVB-T I 
ditched my Nova T 500 and replaced it with a PCI-E HVR2200.
I doubt you will found a modern m/b without a PCI-E slot.  Some of the 
m/b's around have the PCI-E and GPU slot so that the PCI-E one gets 
covered by the double width graphics card, leaving 2 free PCI slots.
Good hunting.
