Hello,
I was able to obtain an obscure ISA graphics accelerator from 1992/1993 that contain CL GD5401 for VGA compatibility and Chips and Technologies F82C481 for 2D acceleration in Windows/CAD programs - miro Magic Plus.
Card is working fine in VGA mode but i need drivers to test properly in Windows.
Problem is that I am unable to find any manual or drivers (specifically for the F82C481 part) for Win 3.1/95 - nor any info on mirosupport sites or archive.org related to this card. Just some vague mention in old PC World magazine.
Can you point me to a resource that has any of these? Or attach directly here 😀

Thanks in advance!

F82C481 is supposed to be compatible with IBM 8514/A.
Have you tried the 8514/A driver shipped with Windows 3.x ?
