I recieved two custom built computers today ones a 386 and the other is a 486 even the cases are hand-made..The 386 had two video cards installed in it. One is a generic VGA which was connected to the other with a 26 pin flat ribbon cable. The second card has New Media Graphics Super Video Windows FCC IVW-029670 on it.Besides the 26 pin it has two connectors on the back. a 9 pin which has an adapter and 5 cables L & R audio in , L & R audio out and video in
The other plug is a 15 pin. There was a plastic bag with what looks like a 15 pin terminator taped to the card. I've searched the net and can't seem to find to much info on this card and hope the drivers are still in the hard-drive..
Does anyone have an idea what this is ?? These two computers were networked together at some time.. Plan on cleaning them up before I power up..
The cases are made of plexiglass and are top hinged so you can open them. And the 486 has ,what I think is soot on it and the plastic is quite clouded around the power supply vents. Checked the FCC Id and it called it a Multimedia/video in a window card 1992

I'm guessing video capture card. Good luck finding the software. Was there anything on the hard drive?

Haven't got that far yet.. Would at least try to get the dust out first..and either someone is growing one of those crystal garden sets or the battery pack has puked..

I found a couple of mentions of it in various news groups (search groups.google.com). It is a video capture/video in a window card for windows 3.0 and I think 3.1.

Company was out of business as of 1995 or so.
