Dudes, is there a standard when it comes to the settings offered by ISA graphics cards? I've found information on TH99 about my Paradise card, but not this one, so I'm wondering if, you know, they're all the same?

The attachment generic-188600-002-8-bit-isa-dual-video-adapter-rev-a-1.39__36500.1490122500.jpg is no longer available

Any help identifying would be hugely appreciated.

I can't offer any insight on the jumper settings but they are a nightmare to find nowdays... what I try to do is look at the cards in TH99, hopefully find one using the same chipset and pray the settings somewhat match... had to do the same for an EGA card I am expecting.

Yeah I thought that might be case - thanks!
