I'm looking for a video card for an old printing press we use occasionally in work. The interface is not any of the standard ones. The machine is from about 1995. I've taken a few pictures of the interface. I've been told this is a VMEbus interface.

Do you have a VGA card that will fit and what price?

Failing that any thoughts on anyone who may be able to help? I'm in the UK but will consider help or purchase from anywhere!

Thanks

PS if its of any help the machine runs an odd OS called OS9!
What machine is it?
Do any of the cards have Motorola, Force or other manufacturers written.
Have you got the original card?
I used to work on specialist computing equipment many years ago. And service this type of thing.
If you were a little closer I would just repair the old card, as this may well be the simplest way to get you going!

and

So far the card we have is working but we are trying to get a backup card in case it goes down.

The machine is a printing press. Various pictures here

Thanks once again for you help so far.
