The thing about TV tuner cards, they are not always 100% compatible with the motherboard. I have 2 TV tuner card, 1 ATI and 1 Hauppauge. Both are good, any cost me quiet a bit but the ATI card would BSOD my computer if I watch TV for about 30 mins. The Hauppauge works fine. I recomment, Hauppauge since they have their own software for the card. ATi didn't/doesn't I had to use WinDVR.

I got the WinTV-HVR 1600, costed me about $160 back then, not sure now.

Speaking of TV and Computers, My laptop has the dual monitor support, and I was wondering what I need to hook it up to a tv as my monitor... Now, I know it supports it, because it's in my graphics card control panel options... I just don't know what kind of hookup I need... I've been browesing lookin for one in electronic stores and such, but to no avail. Please and thank you.
