I am running v. 2.00.612 IXView Video Control with the UltimateRez (8mb,
non-Apple) that I bought new with no problems under OS 9.1.
However, Quicktime and QuickDraw 3D acceleration boxes are unchecked.
None of this has affected my ability to perform Photoshop tasks.
(I don't do any speed tests so there are no figures I can provide.)
