    I'm looking to buy a TV Tuner PCI card for mainly recording programs onto my PC, I live in the UK so it must be compatible over here, below are my PC Specs:

    Windows XP Pro
    Pentium 4 2.67GHz
    128MB DDR GEFORCE4 MX440 8XAGP
    1 Gig DDR400 PC3200
    On Board AC97
    Gigabyte GA-8KNXP Motherboard

    Any help would be grately appreciated in both the make/model and some web sites that I could get one from, I really don't want to pay over £100.

    Regards

    Will

    Have you tried here? https://www.videohelp.com/capturecards

    Prices, links, specs, reviews, fixes, and other owner comments all in one place. :c)
    There's no place like 127.0.0.1

    Yes I looked in there first but all the prices are in $ and since I'm new to this type of card I was just looking for advice on the basis of my needs.

    There is a simple multiplying factor to change from dollars to
    whatever you like. It can be looked up .
    If you are too lazy to do some research you will screw up anyway
    because you might get someone telling you to get a Dazzle.

    Send a message via MSN to dun4cheap
    I would look for a simple ATI AIW card or ATI TV Wonder genre. Goto ATIs web page and look up the TV card series and the All In Wonder line. They should all work for you.

    FOO you really killed me with your answer (NOT) unfortunately some people are very busy and not lazy, I would love to have time on my hands to search through all the possible sites that might or might not deliver to the UK but I haven't.

    And as for dun4cheap thanks for the advice I'll look into that type of card.

    OK then take FT Sharks advice.

    If you don't have lots of time on your hands you are
    getting in to the wrong hobby.
