Second video Card


I'm using 9.2 RC2 (it's great!) and currently have an ATI AIW 8500DV. The card works fine except for TV-Out (I haven't tried TV-In, capture, etc.).

The ATI drivers do not support this card for TV-out so I decided not to try them.

I would like to watch DVD's on my TV so I'm looking for either a video card that just plain works for CRT-out and TV-out or adding a second card to send output to my TV.

Any tips would be appreciated!

Ray

you can take a GeForce (Ti 4600 for example, I use a geforce4mx440 but many people think it sucks)

download nvidia (proprietary drivers : version 4363 worked well with MdK9.1 with tv-out, 4496 messed with console and display tv out in black and white...

use http://yanc.sourceforge.net/ to configure easily twinview
