I found this guy in my home town with a bunch of DOS cards, and I picked one up cheap. I have no idea where to get the software for it though!!! Point me in the right direction please?

Performa 630 DOS card

Thats the latest version...you'll need System 7.5.3 -> 8.1 for it to run.
Btw, I hope that he gave you everything, and not just the bare card. You should have received:
- The LC630 DOS card itself, complete with a 486 CPU
- The Creative Vibra 16 sound card, which piggybacks on top of the DOS card
- The Gameport/LC PDS adaptor, which provides a game port and allows the DOS card to connect to the logic board via the LC PDS slot
- The small ribbon cable which connects the Gameport/LC PDS adaptor to the DOS card
- The ribbon cable which goes from the DOS card to the 22 pin video I/O slot on the logic board (NOT the Video System card slot, the other, much smaller one right near the edge connector)
Which brings me to my next point...the LC630 DOS card is only compatible with "Rev. B" LC630 boards, those which have two SIMM slots and that little brown video I/O slot.
Best of luck getting it working!
