861196 2010-02-24 06:47:00 First thing is, are you sure the mobo has PCI-E on it? Speedy Gonzales (78)
861197 2010-02-24 06:50:00 Sure does it's an Asus m2n-mx here (www.asus.com) gary67 (56)
861198 2010-02-24 07:00:00 what kind of connections does the TV have? Just RCA, or S-Video / and maybe HDMI as well? What do you want to do with music? Just play cd'/dvds through to the TV? Speedy Gonzales (78)
861199 2010-02-24 07:24:00 This TV only has RCA and S-video but looking for a new one soon which hopefully will be HDMI, music movies from disc and from my server over my wired network (whole house is wired) might eventually look at putting a tuner card in but not sure as can't get freeview UHF in Nelson gary67 (56)
861200 2010-02-24 07:47:00 I have just taken my bog standard Acer Aspire Video card and TV card out so I could run a Radeon 5770 to play games. I don't need the TV functionality.
You can make me an offer, if you like.
TV Card is - WinTV (Hauppauge 2006) HVR-1110; 67559LF;Rev B4B4; DVB-T; Multi-PAL
Video Card - ATI Radeon 2400PRO 128MB DDR2 HM, V/D/VO
Board rev 0.1
ASIC P/N: 215LKCAKA13FG
BIOS: SAB2400.101
Memory: Hynix HY5PS561621A, FP -2.5
Cooling: Fansink

(Mods - hope I'm allowed to do that, apologies if I have just broken rules.)
These parts came out of an Acer Aspire M3100 which is no longer bog standard.
Cheers
