Jim, I've got the docs (and probably the card somewhere) to the 
Paradise VGA Plus, which was an 8-bit VGA card from 1988.  There are 
4 switches on the back defined thus:

SW1 - ON = Special multi-frequency display timing
         OFF = Standard PS/2 compatible fixed frequency timing
SW2 - ON = PS/2 only; all VGA modes available on any monitor
          OFF = PC/AT style; color modes on color monitors; mono 
modes on mono monitors.

SW3, SW4 = not used, should be set OFF.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Chuck
