Yes. You can poll for instruction set lists, and from that you can deduce what chip it is. |

Ok it seems that my Buster version is 11 ( the newest one?). And my A3640 (?) Processor card is v 3.0 by Commodore.
How easy/ hard would it be to upgrade my card to 3.2 ( newest? ) ? |

It requires that you can desolder surface mount chips; it's not easy.
