Don't quote me. But I believe you can get a tuner card fairly cheap, and it has TV out, I think. I'm not sure though. I know they are fairly inexpensive.

u are right they are pretty affordable, BUT i thought they only had a tv-in...

and the hauppauge website is bloody bad, no information to be found bout this...

by the way, thank for the answer [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well, after I posted, I did some looking around and you may be correct in thinking that a tuner card only has TV-in.

I'm not really sure of any other solutions right now. I'll try to keep looking around though.

I found one, but it doesnt really make sense as its $100:

creative dxr3, a dvd decoder card, has a tv-out too. but it actually doesnt make much sense to buy that, who the hell needs a dvd-decoeer card?

so it appears to be paying $150 for a cute litte gts2 tv-out

Is this the sort of thing, allows you to use a tv as a monitor http://<a href="http://www.bernclare.../genie.htm</a>

You can go to tigerdirect.com and get a nvidia display card with 32mb and tv out for 61.00

thanks for the info, but by now i piad the $150 and got me a new graphics adapter with tv-out
