    asked about a vga card a few weeks ago

    after digging around I decided on a
    nvidia 512 mb ddr3 GeForce 8400 gs

    stuck it in the slot, rolled the disk. hot damn the wife is happy.

    thanx for the input when I asked!!

    that desktop did not have a card and her tv said no signal when we tried to hook it up.

    I run a monitor on my desk and the plasma screen TV on my entertainment stand. Computer outputs stereo to a stereo at the desk and a stereo on the entertainment center, and I can control both independently. It makes a badass entertainment system.

    Not that it does me any good when I'm lucky to see it 8 days a month.
