From the better late than never peanut gallery: from the VideoVision 2 Upgrade Notes August 1994
"This release does NOT support the Power Macintosh PDS upgrade card."
Supported CPUs:
8100
8100AV
WorkGroup Server 9150
"Using VideoVision Studio in the PowerMacintosh 7100 or 7100AV is not recommended."
Now that's a strange one! I don't remember anything at all about that incompaibility. It's likely another lily-livered Apple PSU kinda deal, like IIsi/Rocket incompatibility, as well as olePigeon's longstanding problems with even a 7100 PSU being underpowered for IIci Rocketization.
I was going to hang my own tales of VideoVision Studio Madness off the end of this topic, but decided to prep a new thread. Documenting the long overdue TLC infusion for the, much neglected, pet Radius 81/100 will wait for a later day.
To stave off a bit of the madness, does anyone have docs on the last OS supported by VideoVision Studio. I'm limiting my own experimentation to OS 7.5.1, the last OS for the NuBus Architecture Macs, unadulterated by PCI Support. The above quoted 1984 version of this 1993 ReadME is most unhelpful in this regard.
The TidBit about OS 7.5.1 and NuBus Card optimization came from the Radius Q&A regarding the Thunder IV GX 1600, which will be housed in the Radius 81/110/G3/400/1M.
