hey ppl, i have this graphics card in my old 300mhz that i almost remember has VIVO but i'm probably just making shit up in my head. anyway it has the yellow RCA plug thingy in the back but i have no idea if that is IN or OUT or both. is there anyway to tell? here is all the info i can find about the card:

its a: trident 3dImage 975 (or 9750) AGP with 4MB memory
i opened up the case and on the card it says OnSpeed not sure if that means my graphics card is taking drugs or what. lol

oh hey i just looked at the back of the card again and it looks like it has S-video also....i think thats s-video anyway.

anyhelp figureing out the featurs of my shity graphics card would be much arpushiated. thanks

here is another...http://shop.store.yahoo.com/directro...i-9750-4a.html

Video in... sure, take a cable that matches up and connect it to your TV and see if you can get anything from your computer to show up on your TV :) You may need to do some tweaking in your display properties, but Im sure you can figure it out :)

yeah i need more cables lmao, i guess the only thing i can do is hook up my old playstation to it lol and that would test the graphics card for video in....but i don't have any tv tuner software or what ever i would need. hmmm
