Has anyone here ever gotten the Apple Video Card Utility to work with the 8*24 video card ? I know the card supports RS-170A timing but the Apple Video Card Utility doesn't seem to "see" this card. Setup is 6.0.7 (Fr.Canada) with 32bit Quickdraw (from 6.0.7 printing tools) and Monitors CDEV version 4.0 beta something (came with the Apple Video Card Utility). Does this utility work on anything other than the Toby Frame Buffer (a.k.a. original 8 bit video card) ? Is there an updated version of this product ?

Is there an updated version of this product ? Yes, it works with the "Apple High Resolution Video Card". But I think it only allows you to turn on the flicker filter when used with such a card If you want RS-170A from the 8*24, just leave the sense lines unconnected. Connect up the green/sync and the ground lines to your monitor, and nothing else. (be sure to set the system to monochrome) -- Matthew T.
