SuperMac Spectrum/24 PDQ+ feels more like PDS-...

Installed a SuperMac Spectrum/24 PDQ+ video card into the IIci. Feels like I'm using a Mac SE, video-wise. Control Panel is the SuperVideo 3.1. OS is 7.5.5... Do I need to hunt down a different version of the control panel to work properly?

Interesting, mine must be a vanilla, first rev. Spectrum/24 . . .

. . . control panel for 2.07 looks like it may do the trick. What's the copyright date on PCB and ROM?

My guess is that SuperVideo 3.1 is for the later Spectrum/24 Series IV and V cards from the looks of the info on that screen.

My Spectrum/24 and the Series II cards aren't even mentioned on LEM.

Hope this works - snagged the pic from the evilBay auction...



Yeah, sounds like it. Where may I source the older version? Only the 3.1 link works on the late Gamba's video card/monitor matrix page.
