With no tv card the only way to do this is by watching online shows. Still this isn't a free service, you usually have to pay!

Yeah, exactly, you want to get a graphics card with TV-out. As you probably guessed this means it will send the signal out to the TV. It will most likely use a yellow S-Video cable, and you will need to buy a cable that will come from your sound card with the red and white (or black) audio channels. If your TV doesn't accept S-Video then you should be able to pick up an S-Video to Scart adapter for about $5.

Hunh?\n\nThe best way to hook your TV to a computer is with a TV Card (usually PCI, but PCIe and AGP are available.)  There are USB setups available also.  Some video cards include a TV out, also.\n\nYou will also need a TV tuner program, if you hook the cable in.

If you're talking about live TV, you just have to buy a TV tuner card.  It comes with the software that will allow you to watch TV... you just plug your cable into the tuner card and watch away!\n\ngood Luck!

Tv tuner cards doesn't require a lot of resources from your pc, so you could get away with a meagre system. But why would you wanna do that? ;-)

You'll need a TV Tuner PCI card. If you do that you may as well get a card that is a Video capture, FM, TV, PVR, expansion card. Look at:\n\nhttp://www.newegg.com/index.asp\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/

Hi. What you need is a 3d graphics card that can support TV out. You can tell which supports which when you're buying it by checking on the box. Make sure you know that type of connector that your TV uses so that you can pick the right one. The most commonly used is serial connectors coz it's less expensive.\nChoosing the type of card would depend entirely on you, depending on what kind of PC/Laptop you have, and the specs.\nMake sure you know your system spec and compare it with the graphics card that you want to puchase

add a tv tuner card to one of your empty slots in the back of your computer. then you either use a spliter from your cable box to your computer or a direct line to the back of your computer. you will be able to watch anythiig that the tuner picks up

ATI also makes some stand alone tv tuners. I'd stay clear of the ATI All in Wonder. I have one and I wish I had purchased a seperate card. Check bestbuy, circuit city or your favorite online dealer for prices.

You would need to purchase something called a TV Tuner Card.  Some of them come with remote controls and decent ones usually cost, at most, about $30.  If you have a laptop or you don't have an available PCI slot to install it, you can get external USB TV Tuner Cards, as well.\n\nSome graphics cards come with NTSC and Digital tuners built in.  You do not necessarily need to replace the entire graphics card.  \n\nHere's a cheap internal PCI one with a remote\n\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1698860&CatId=1427\n\nHere is an external.  They are generally more expensive.\n\nhttp://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1961041&CatId=0

You need an s-video cable. Must have the connections on the tv and the comp. Run the sound out of the headphone jack. Good luck.
