PCIe TV Tuner Card for Windows XP Media Center

[drwho41963]

I am looking for a PCIe TV Tuner Card which I can use with Windows XP Media Center. I would like the card to have input for a coax cable so I can watch cable while working. I currently have a remote control which I can use with the Windows XP Media Center software. I just updated my system to a Dimension 9100 desktop with 1gb ddr2 sdram at 533mhz, 256mb ati hyper memory pci-express x16 (dvi/vga/tv out) radeon x600 se, sb audigy 2 zs pci w/dolby digital ex, ieee1394 7.1 channel, thx cert.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

MCE is an OEM product so you need to gain OEM knowledge to build a machine. You can become a certified MCE builder and get "the list" or you can join a MCE hacking forum and tune into the rumors and trial and error reports.

That said look at an ATI EHOME WONDER™ no warranty implied

They have one for PCI and another for PCIe.

(some say it works for MCE 2004 only, the PCIe version may still be a prototype)

Or PVR-250mce from Hauppauge (delete that is for PCI only)

I purchased Haupauge PVR 150 MCE PCI TV Card. I should be getting it by this weekend. I read a few reviews online. It seems to be what I looking for. We shall see.
