Hi all !

Sorry for cross-posting in 68kmla and here.
I'm looking for information on a PDS video card I've got in a battery bombed Macintosh SE 1/40.

The strange thing about it is that I have a DB15 connector so I am wondering if it would be usable on a recent monitor using a VGA adapter.
Also, one wire is disconnected and I'm not sure of its original place on the connector since some pins are linked together.

Finally, any info on drivers ? Using a BlueSCSI, I could do a backup of original hdd but the only INIT I've found that does not seem to be from Apple is a "Publisher V2.40B" INIT (we can see it on the last attached picture)

Here are some pictures if this can help … Sorry for the quality.

Thank you for reading me :)

I have exactly the same card, with the serial number A14267, but with the DB9 connector. :oops:
Did you find any drivers or more information about the card?

Same here, Chris from that Facebook post. Finally had some time to get another look. I can try to see if the SE/30 this came from powers on to retrieve any drivers it had.

Sorry!
I forgot I did a thread here too :eek:

So here is the driver I've found on the SE hdd:

As you can see in attached pictures, this video card should support :
  • Apple 12" High Resolution
  • Apple 15" Single Page
  • Apple 21" Dual Page
  • Single Page Display
  • Dual Page Display

As soon as I have done my new breakout cable, I will try to use a classic VGA adaptor to connect it to a "modern" LCD monitor which is known to work with my LC475 and support sync on green and others specific frequencies.

Once I found the actual part # I googled it and this page was in it. Would love to get a monitor this works with that takes DB9 or make a DB-15 cable like you have.
