The video card works just as we'd hoped. We can put a video on the TV, via the computer, while hubby still works on the copmuter. Picture is nice, and setting it up was fairly easy (never heard complaints from hubby about it). Hubby's games work with this card (didn't work before), have very nice graphics and play nicely (not jumpy).
One downside, which is a problem with the TV, not the video card. With the S-video plugged in, the DVD player doesn't work; we have to disconnect the S-video first.
An FYI: keep in mind that any video card won't deal with audio. I hadn't given it much thought, and found myself disappointed (even though, logically, its a *video* card, not audio). The sound still comes from the computer speakers. Its not a problem with the video card, just an FYI for those who are about as techy as I am, and maybe haven't given that aspect any consideration.
