Does anyone have, or know where I can find, a copy of the Translation ROM image for an Orchid Pro Designer II? According to the manual I found today, this was an optional chip to allow the Pro Designer II to have built in capacity to emulate various older modes (MDA, CGA, etc...).

Thanks! Geoff
 
Exactly... the Translation ROM lets the card sync itself to mimic MDA, CGA, EGA in software. Never seen anything like it before on any card. But... you need that Translation ROM.

@Luitana.... I have the PDF manual. I'm having trouble uploading it. I will send you a PM.

Thanks!

I also would like a copy if you are willing. I have one of these cards as well. :)

Sorry to necro an old thread, but does anyone have the above file? I too have an Orchid Pro Designer II and could use this rom.
