You do have one, for the OS there's no difference between a card stuck in a PCI or ISA slot, or it being hardwired to the bus (on-board of the mobo). You can let windows sort the devices by connection/bus, you will see that your card is listed on the ISA bus (at least if
RockMumbles is correct).

off topic, but... how much is RAM installed? If you do a harddisk install, could you put up message here how (fast) it runs? I would ditch my old Suse 6.4 install if I knew it would run nicely in X. btw, try booting in XFCE or Fluxbox
