Pc/tv

Katykaboom

Hey there folks, basically was thinking of getting a new tv for my room, as the one I have now is crap. Now I have a new compaq with a 19 inch screen and my freind suggested there may actaully be a cable I can get that I can just hook my ntl up straight to the computercause I'm aware you can do it the other way around. This would cut out my need for an actual tv and would be marvellous. Any techies know if such a thing exists?

T.V. tuner card. Just make sure it's analogue afaik. You can get them in the likes of Maplins or PC World. USB is the easiest way to go I think.

yeah.. you'll need an analog pc card.. you can get digital/analog cards as well which will be handy when this country goes digital in another lifetime :rolleyes:
