I received a box with a like-new copy of Photoshop 3.0 in it--the Adobe Type-On Call CD was still inside the plastic bag. I continue to be amazed by the physical quality of most of the stuff I've received.
Anyway, after installing it, I was able to drop the PhotoEngine Plug-In into the extensions folder of Photoshop. I attempted to follow the instructions on the PhotoEngine Q&A page I found on how to check the LEDs to see it the board is functioning and wow, the machine did NOT like that. Immediately, bad interference patterns appeared on the display. I could tell that the chips were being accessed, because they were warm, but I quickly shut the machine off and tried to track down the problem.
I took out the second display card, no effect. Interference. I took the DSP extension from my system extensions folder and the plug-in out of the photoshop extensions folder and the interference was still present. Now, officially worried, I shut down, pulled the card and nervously restarted. Interference not present.
I have a variety of drivers so I will try to see whether I just had the wrong versions installed. Another theory: Did I unwittingly get a rev that doesn't play well with the IIci?
No time to continue on for now, so I'm shunting this problem to a secondary process while I go have dinner over at a friends's house. Anyone running a PhotoEngine have anything to add? The card has the white Nubus interface and reads 632-0213-01 rev A and was built in 1994.
Best,
John
